That could be changing, according to Elias Mendoza, vice president of corporate development and a former Morgan Stanley banker. Mendoza says as IBM navigates in a fast-evolving competitive landscape and expands its presence in global markets, i-bankers can offer insight and connections that complement the capabilities of IBM's in-house deal team. - Suzanne Stevens<p> By <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/" >thedealvideo</a></p> <p> Tags : <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/Corp.">Corp.</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/Elias">Elias</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/IBM">IBM</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/Mendoza">Mendoza</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/bankers">bankers</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/investment">investment</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/technology">technology</a></p> Mon, 23 Nov 2009 20:50:03 GMT http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/videos/354/ Corp.

Now many are turning to technology to further drive efficiency and to help maintain service levels. That in turn is attracting a variety of investors to financial services technology, or fintech, firms with the tools to address those needs. In this edition of Inside the Deal, Jeff Bistrong, managing director with the middle market-focused investment bank Harris Williams & Co., says Xerox Corp's (NYSE:XRX) acquisition of Affiliated Computer Systems Inc. (NYSE:ACS) and Dell Inc.'s (NASDAQ:DELL) of Perot Services Corp. (NYSE:PER) qualify as examples with both targets offering some fintech services. But Bistrong says middle market firms and private equity investors are also driving fintech transactions.

So says Jeff Bistrong, managing director with the middle market-focused investment bank Harris Williams & Co. In this edition of Inside the Deal, Bistrong says the result is an increase in stock deals and transformational acquisitions. - Suzanne Stevens<p> By <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/" >thedealvideo</a></p> <p> Tags : <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/&">&</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/Bistrong">Bistrong</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/Co.">Co.</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/Harris">Harris</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/Jeff">Jeff</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/M&A">M&A</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/Williams">Williams</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/stock">stock</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/technology">technology</a></p> Wed, 28 Oct 2009 16:19:01 GMT http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/videos/314/ & Bistrong Co.

THINK/ Musings blog is food for the Internet intelligensia. One of the many online phenomena he articulated early and well is the real-time Web, or what he called originally The Now Web. These days, Borthwick is contemplating the next stage of the Internet's development, the Web of Things. To dip into these heady issues, The Deal caught up with Borthwick earlier this month at Shake Shack II, an informal gathering of 300 of the smartest folks on the New York tech scene.

At the recent Shake Shack II party, Lipsher told The Deal's Mary Kathleen Flynn that he met Starbucks Corp. (NASDAQ:SBUX) founder Howard Schultz in 1991 at Kellogg's Entrepreneur Club and noticed immediately that the entrepreneur had the process of launching a Starbucks cafe "down to a science." During the summer between his first and second years, Lipsher "scraped together every penny I could so that I could buy shares in Starbucks when it went public in 1992." The move paid off for Lipsher, an obsessive coffee guzzler who prefers the Dunkin Donuts brand. When he got his MBA, he was debt-free.

The casual gathering was organized by O'Donnell and hosted by nextN, a group he founded for up-and-comers in the tech and new-media fields. The evening offered precious opportunities for entrepreneurs and investors to rub elbows -- and make deals. We were there, videotaping our conversations with dozens of the digerati.

VCs are willing to invest, says Sodhani, but at lower valuations than many startups are willing to accept. Sodhani also discusses the effect that the until-recently nonexistent IPO market has had on Intel Capital's portfolio and on how recent innovations, such as SecondMarket's Private Company Market, may help investors get some liquidity from pre-IPO companies.<p> By <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/" >thedealvideo</a></p> <p> Tags : <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/Arvind">Arvind</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/Capital">Capital</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/Intel">Intel</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/SecondMarket">SecondMarket</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/Sodhani">Sodhani</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/business">business</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/capital">capital</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/dealflow">dealflow</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/startups">startups</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/technology">technology</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/valuations">valuations</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/venture">venture</a></p> Tue, 23 Jun 2009 14:41:01 GMT http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/videos/267/ Arvind Capital Intel SecondMarket Sodhani business capital dealflow startups technology valuations venture thedealvideo Dealflow declines, says Intel Capital's Sodhani http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/videos/266/ <p><a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/videos/266/" title="Apture helps media, one link at a time" ><img src="http://cdn-thumbs.viddler.com/thumbnail_1_b15bdc6e.jpg" width="114" height="86" alt="Apture helps media, one link at a time" border="0" /></a></p> In this episode our Behind the Money online video show, Tristan Harris, co-founder and CEO of Apture Inc., tells The Deal how informal chats with fellow students at Stanford University, who happened to be world-class journalists, led to the birth of his San Mateo, Calif., startup. 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.

Now, Zieser, who leads corporate development for the media company Meredith Corp, (NYSE:MDP) says he's having those conversations almost daily on both the traditional and new media side. And those discussion have resulted in deals. Recently Meredith - with holdings in digital, broadcast and print media, including Better Homes and Gardens, Fitness and More magazines - took at 20% stake in Real Girls Media Network alongside PE investors with an exclusive option to acquire the remaining 80%. It also aligned with the PE media fund Veronis Suhler Stevenson on early stage digital marketing and media investments. In this edition of Inside the Deal, Zieser says not only are PE and VC firms seeking strategic partners, they're structuring deals differently. "They are coming to us or other strategic partners and trying to do much more creative deals, which will not be around cost synergies or turnaround. They'll be more strategically structured." - Suzanne Stevens<p> By <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/" >thedealvideo</a></p> <p> Tags : <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/Corp.">Corp.</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/Deal">Deal</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/Inside">Inside</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/John">John</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/M&A">M&A</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/Meredith">Meredith</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/Zieser">Zieser</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/equity">equity</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/magazine">magazine</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/media">media</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/newspapaer">newspapaer</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/private">private</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/technology">technology</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/the">the</a></p> Tue, 16 Jun 2009 21:12:02 GMT http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/videos/264/ Corp.

Kaplan's primary contribution has been Founders Club, an exclusive invite-only roaming party for startup CEOs, the most recent of which was held Thursday night atop a private roofdeck overlooking Rockefeller Center. The rest of us can enjoy the view through photos of last night's event taken by Mahalo.com founder Jason Calacanis, the original chronicler of the New York tech startup scene back in the dot com day when he founded Silicon Alley Reporter. We caught up with Kaplan earlier this week at Silicon Alley Insider's Startup 2009, where she shared a frank assessment of the challenges the tech community faces here, including the high price of real estate.

New hires at Tumblr include John Maloney as president and Jacob Bijani as creative director. "I'm much happier in my day-to-day work," says 22-year-old Karp (pictured). And as for Tumblr, "we're moving a lot faster than we have ever before." We asked Karp to share his experience and offer some advice to help other entrepreneurs just moments after he won the 2009 Silicon Alley Award for Most Loved Product or Service at Wednesday's Startup 2009 event, which was part of Internet Week New York. In the video, he also talks about the toll fundraising can take on a CEO, calling it a "mental sink." Karp recently raised a $4.5 million Series B from New York's Union Square Ventures and Boston's Spark Capital. (Click here to watch an earlier video with us where he talks about that process.)

Rather than relying on advertisers to foot the bill, media companies should develop closer relationships with their audiences and provide products and services people are willing to pay for, says Touby. She also discusses life after acquistion. She sold Mediabistro.com to WebMediaBrands (previously known as Jupitermedia) for $20 million with a $3 million earn-out in 2007.

"I like geeks, and I wish I'd met one before I met my husband." Instead of a tech entrepreneur Touby chose a media maven after her own heart, marrying BusinessWeek's media columnist Jon Fine in 2004, and they've been living happily ever after ever since.<p> By <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/" >thedealvideo</a></p> <p> Tags : <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/Laurel">Laurel</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/Mediabistro">Mediabistro</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/Touby">Touby</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/business">business</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/media">media</a>, <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/tags/technology">technology</a></p> Tue, 21 Apr 2009 20:55:01 GMT http://www.viddler.com/explore/thedealvideo/videos/231/ Laurel Mediabistro Touby business media technology thedealvideo Why Laurel Touby really started mediabistro.com
