Steve Anderson Email & Phone Number

In 2006 I was starting to ruminate on the idea of founding a company. When I began to think about raising seed capital, there were few alternatives to consider. That’s when I realized that instead of founding a company, founding Baseline would be the best use of my skills and interests. Bringing a diverse experience from eBay, Microsoft, Kleiner Perkins, Starbucks and Digital Equipment Corporation and an avid love for affecting change, Baseline addresses the gap between individual investors and institutional venture capitalists. My purpose is to help founders build and grow their early stage companies into change effecting enterprises.Since its inception, Baseline has invested in more than 75 companies and helped more than 25 companies exit profitably for founders and investors alike. Baseline is proud to be a seed investor associated with the following highly promising companies:StitchfixSofiInstagram and Parakey (both acquired by Facebook)Machine ZoneDishcraftRStudioHeroku, ExactTarget, GoInstant and CoTweet (all acquired by Salesforce.com)Crashlytics and GeoAPI (both acquired by Twitter)IndexTank (acquired by LinkedIn)Rupture (acquired by EA)Sendori (acquired by Ask.com)Versely (acquired by Cisco)Aardvark and DocVerse (both acquired by Google)Yardbarker (acquired by Fox Sports)BookFresh (acquired by Sugar Media)Cake Financial (acquired by E*Trade)ScanScout (acquired by Tremor Media)StaxNetworks (acquired by Cloudbees)Hunch (acquired by eBay)Instructables (acquired by AutoDesk)Flowtown (acquired by DemandForce)OMGPop (acquired by Zynga)Xobni (acquired by Yahoo!)Metaresolver (acquired by Millenial Media)
