  • Maveron Looking for Permanent Hearth in SF
    Alastair Goldfisher- 19 November 2009

    I thought it was curious when I posted earlier today /56111/maveron-finds-san-francisco-home/?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+pehub%2Fblog+(PE+HUB+Blog)&utm_content=Twitter how Maveron has opened a San Francisco office for Partner Amy Errett to call home. The office isn't as curious as the location http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=71+Stevenson+Street,+Suite+400,+San+Francisco,+CA++94104&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=52.637906,114.169922&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=71+Stevenson+St,+San+Francisco,+California+94105&z=17&iwloc=A The consumer-focused firm said it was hanging its shingle a few blocks west of the heart of the financial district on a short block shadowed by tall buildings. Just got off the phone with Errett, who says the office locale is temporary. Ideally, they're looking in the areas South of Market and Jackson Square to setup more permanent digs. Now that makes sense, since the firm is looking to scout the industry for promising wellness, online education and Internet-based consumer services businesses to back.

  • Maveron Gives Some Heart to San Francisco
    Alastair Goldfisher- 18 November 2009

    Seattle-based venture firm Maveron announced today that it has officially opened its San Francisco office. The consumer-oriented firm -- co-founded by Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz -- had been scouting for a San Francisco locale ever since it hired Amy Errett as a partner in August 2008. Errett, who was previously CEO and owner of lifestyle and travel company Olivia, will lead the San Francisco office. Since joining the firm, Errett has focused on Web enabled consumer trends, e-commerce social shopping and online education, according to the Maveron website.
