Venture Capital
Menlo Park, California, 94025
Floodgate Fund is a venture capital firm based in the United States created by Mike Maples Jr. and Ann Miura-Ko. It was originally named Maples Investments but was renamed Floodgate Fund in March 2010. It is focused on investments in technology companies in Silicon Valley. If you dream of building a breakthrough, it will take work -- an almost impossible amount. You will have to adapt, regroup, and pivot. You will battle devastating setbacks and face endless unknowns. Sometimes, you will make a fool of yourself. Conventional thinkers will often, and loudly, say you’re wrong. You will spend time with VCs and other folks who will tell you everything that can go wrong...while lacking the talent and imagination to envision what can go right. You will experience days when you agree with the doubters while fighting your personal demons on the startup roller coaster.
