Our approach is thematically driven, meaning we identify the major long-term trends in each sector, and then identify the best opportunities for investment consistent with each theme. The best way to predict the future is to create it. We know the best way to profit from the future is to invest in those who are creating in it.

Crosslink invests in five principal sectors. These are

• Alternative Energy & Cleantech,
• Communication Services & Infrastructure,
• Computing & Semiconductors,
• Digital Media & Internet Services, and
• Software & Business Services.
  

We come prepared. The advantage for the entrepreneur is that we usually address pivotal issues in the first conversation. We can usually tell you very quickly if we are interested, and if we are interested, we can move quickly to arrive at a decision.

Our process focuses on developing a shared vision of how to maximize shareholder value and how to leverage/engage our resources to help you achieve this goal. Our complementary private and public investing gives us a longer-term view of our relationships with portfolio companies. We often continue to support and even redouble our commitment to great companies once they go public. Our decision to invest with you is not just a transaction, but the beginning of a long-term interaction.
