Big Sky Partners

Big Sky Partners is an early stage venture capital firm that invests across a range of high tech startups and select emerging growth companies. The firm, led by Managing Director Michael Schwab, specializes in seed and Series A technology financing, applying a multi-sector investment strategy with a particular focus on the cleantech and alternative energy sectors, Web 2.0, software-as-a-service, and global financial services. The firm has extensive expertise in, and can offer entrepreneurs significant strategic contacts across, the clean energy, software-as-a-service, next-generation Internet and global financial services industries. Though seed and early stage investing (ie. $250K - $1M) are the firm's existing primary financing round targets, Big Sky will also look at participating in significant later stage funding rounds, as well as selective alternative business strategies that show strong positive cash flow, professional management teams, and exciting and solid growth opportunities.
