Kepha plans for another $100M VC fund

By Michelle Lang

Waltham venture capital firm Kepha Partners is looking to raise $100 million for its second fund, a filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission has shown.

The firm, which focuses on early stage investments, raised the same amount – $100 million – in its first fund in 2009.

Founded in 2006 by Jo Tango, Kepha has a portfolio of investments in seven firms: AutoVirt Inc., Azuki Systems Inc., Clovr Media Inc., Goby Technologies Inc., OwnerIQ Inc., Paradigm4 and Volt DB. Tango previously worked for almost nine years as a general partner at Highland Capital Partners. During that time, his investments included Bit9 Inc., ExaGrid Systems Inc., StreamBase Systems Inc., Vertica Systems Inc. and Virtual Iron Software Inc.
