Sand Hill takes its name from ‘Venture Capital Row’ - the heart of technology innovation in the Information Age. Being well known and respected within the venture community, 100% of our business is based on referrals. Most of our clients are venture-backed startups; most are early stage with less than 100 employees; some have as few as a handful. Our portfolio is made up of young software companies building promising next-generation products and services, typically new applications or technologies that will drive high impact change. We partner with our clients to find the executives and key individual contributors who are crucial to the success of these new ventures. We see a down economy as an opportunity for both companies and job seekers. Many successful companies were founded during the last downturn (some with the help of Sand Hill Search). We continue to add staff to our clients still in growth mode. This year, it is our goal to scout out solid new startups and staff their founding teams with top tier talent.
