First Round Capital, the West Conshohocken venture-capital
firm, was the third-largest venture-capital investor in the United
States over the last year, as measured by the number of deals.
The firm is directed by Josh Kopelman, the founder and seller of Infonautics, half.com, and TurnTide, and his comrade Chris Fralic, along with their
West Coast and New York partners. First Round's performance was tracked by both CB Insights and the PricewaterhouseCoopers MoneyTree surveys.
First Round averaged a deal a week, more than Sequoia Capital or Benchmark Capital, and almost as many as Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers, among other big Silicon Valley firms.
