## Method and limits
- Source: All 69 rows carry an SEC filing (Form D or Form ADV). All 69 have a website we checked. Filing date and fund size are SEC data where a filing exists. Stage, sector and check size are our research.
- Inclusion rule: Organizations that back startups. Individuals, buyout funds and firms we found to be inactive are left out. Sector: the firm states industrial tech and manufacturing as a focus on its own site, or we observed it in the firm's portfolio. Place: head office in the San Francisco Bay Area, matched on city and state.
- Order: Activity score out of 100: recency of the latest fund filing or dated deal (35: full marks within 3 months, then stepping down at 6, 12 and 24 months), share of the observed portfolio in this sector (25; half of that when the sector is stated only), stated focus on the US (15: full marks when the firm names the US as where it invests, half when it says global), size of the fund on file on a log scale (15) and completeness of the public record (10). Regional focus is our research, not an SEC figure. It is a measure of activity and fit, not of quality or returns.
- Fill rates: Of 69 rows: stage 56, sector 69, fund size 62, website 69. In the paid file: named decision-makers on 66 rows, firm email on 20, LinkedIn page on 33, check size on 5.
