Now with its second fund, EVP is excited to continue upon its track record of discovering exceptional young companies on the verge of breakout. While continuing our focus on Mobile (particularly apps, payment, health and enterprise) we are excited to be expanding our sector interest to include Big Data (including open/social data, natural language processing, machine learning and analytics) and the Internet-of-Things (wearables, robotics, drones and connected devices).
