Triton's initial investments typically range from $500,000 to $4 million, depending upon the needs of the company. We support portfolio companies as they make progress with additional follow-on investments, and we are often involved in introducing other investors to the company or in leading investment syndicates.

In deciding which companies to fund among the hundreds we encounter, we tend to focus on three key considerations:

• Will the company's technology-based product or service significantly change the way business is conducted?
• Is there a large and/or rapidly growing market, manageable competition and moderate capital requirements?
• Is there a "positively charged" management team with experience and enthusiasm that we will feel good about working with even when things do not go according to plan?

If the answer to all three questions is yes, we will definitely have an interest.
