Seed Stage

Sequoia Capital invests between $100K-$1M in startups across the consumer technology;energy;financial services;healthcare services infrastructure markets. These are situations where we have the privilege of collaborating with very special founders who have a unique insight on the customer problem and a novel idea for addressing that pain point. A seed stage company often occupies space in our building where a subsistence of ramen, red bull and portable furniture are at the engineering team’s disposal. Founders such as Jerry Yang and David Filo of Yahoo, Chad Hurley and Steve Chen of YouTube and Omar Hamoui of AdMob had their first office at 3000 Sand Hill Road.
