Sutter Hill Ventures

Menlo Park-based Venture Capital firm known for incubating companies from scratch and taking unusual operational involvement in building them. Responsible for backing Snowflake, SumoLogic, and Clumio among others.

Mario Gabriele described the firm as “VC’s silent assassins” in Sutter Hill Are VC’s Silent… (tweet): “They’re behind Snowflake, SumoLogic, Clumio and many others but search for information on them and you find almost nothing.” The near-total absence of press coverage despite landmark outcomes is a distinctive characteristic.
