At 79, Ferri, whose firm's new $600 million fund is the second-largest VC fund raised this year, announced he will no longer lead new investments but will leave that job to his younger partners. Heesen says it's a strategy other established VC firms would do well to emulate. Watch the video below or download it on iTunes.

The New York venture capital firm is the biggest investor, besides Oracle Corp. (NASDAQ:ORCL) CEO Larry Ellison, in NetSuite Inc. (NYSE:N), which debuted on the New York Stock Exchange in December of 2007, shortly before the IPO market shut down. While Farrington and other venture capitalists are encouraged by the six VC-backed companies that have gone public in the last couple of months, including SolarWinds Inc. (NYSE:SWI) and OpenTable Inc. (NASDAQ:OPEN), they point out that the number of companies that have filed to go public with the SEC is very low. Farrington says there are 12 currently in the queue, and she expects some of them to withdraw. Despite the challenges inherent in IPOs today -- including complying with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act -- most entrepreneurs still dream of going public one day, says Farrington. The Deal's conversation with Farrington was shot on location at the NYSE Euronext and kicks off a new series we're running on the current IPO environment.

Apture, which has developed a clever technique for adding relevant links to Web pages and has attracted an impressive roster of customers, including the Washington Post Co., Reuters and the BBC, recently raised a $4.1 million Series A round led by early-stage venture capital firm Clearstone Venture Partners. Harris was introduced to the partners at Clearstone by JT Batson, head of business development for the Rubicon Project, a Los Angeles startup in Clearstone's portfolio. Click here for a Q&A with Clearstone partner David Stern on why the firm is backing Apture. The startup was seeded in the summer of 2007 with $500,000 from individual investors, including VMware Inc. (NYSE:VMW) CEO Paul Martiz, former Boston Globe executive vice president Steve Taylor and former Warburg Pincus managing director Beau Vrolyk. (The Deal Pipeline subscribers can learn more about Apture and its funding here.) In the video, Tristan (pictured) says that Apture was hatched over informal conversations with Pam Maples, assistant managing editor of The Dallas Morning News, and Martin Turner, Americas bureau chief of the British Broadcasting Corp., both of whom were Stanford University Knight Fellows in 2006 when Harris was a Mayfield Fellow with the Stanford Technology Ventures Program.

Klaus describes how the online video contest company he founded three years ago evolved into an independent record label that distributes Ingrid Michaelson and The Sounds, among others. Echoing Pakman's thoughts, Klaus says the secret was paying attention to which parts of the business were generating revenue and which weren't. The company's backers seem to like the change of plans. Original Signal recently raised a Series B (amount undisclosed) from Greylock Partners and Point Judith Capital, both of which led the company's $5.5 million Series A in January 2007. The label also signed a distribution and promotion agreement with Universal Motown Records, a division of Universal Music Group. (The Deal Pipeline subscribers can learn more here.) The videos with Klaus and Pakman were taped at Silicon Alley Insider's recent Startup 2009 competition. Watch the Klaus video below, or download it on iTunes.
