Bull City Venture Partners
No summary available yet.
Bull City is a solid regional player that actually knows the Southeast market better than most coastal funds pretend to. Carl Hoffman's operator background shows - he'll roll up his sleeves on sales strategy and customer development rather than just pontificate from the sidelines. The fund is small enough that you'll get real attention, but that also means their follow-on capacity is limited. They're not going to get you on stage at TechCrunch, but they will help you close enterprise deals and navigate the quirks of selling to Fortune 500 companies.
