The best partnerships are based on complementary capabilities, aligned incentives, and shared values.

Integrity, trust, and teamwork are core values at UV Partners. We embrace diversity in personality types and skill sets in management teams. Our communications are open, direct, and honest. We recognize and appreciate creativity and realize it takes different forms among the individuals on our team. We enjoy the challenge of leading an effort into uncharted territory and expect one another to take responsibility for the successes and disappointments that result. We understand that living these values is the key to our success as a partnership.

Our previous experiences have taught us that shared values and philosophical alignments are key predictors of enjoyable work and rewarding relationships. We look for evidence of shared values in our entrepreneurs and management teams and encourage them to do the same when evaluating venture capital firms.
