ABOUT

Santa Fe Capital Group was founded in 1981 as successor to a small New York City investment bank founded by David Silver in 1972. Mr. Silver was trained at Kuhn Loeb & Co. While there, he discovered Automatic Data Processing, and brought the company in for a venture capital round and later an IPO. Other companies which he raised venture capital for during his time with Kuhn Loeb include Codex, the first modem manufacturer, Scientific-Atlanta, Genway and Sealand Services.The 1980s included the following deals: A $10 million convertible note raise for American Bonding; the first technology transfer from a national laboratory to an entrepreneurial company, called Mesa Diagnostics, which was a start-up that owned a flow cytometry technology, for which Santa Fe Capital raised $3 million. SFCG assisted in another technology transfer from Los Alamos Labs resulting in the E-Z Pass RFID technology used at toll gates around the world. Additionally, SFCG raised capital for three movies including The Return of the Jedi, Dark Crystals and Taipan.The decade of the 1990s included a $4.5 million raise for Xing Tecnologies, Inc., inventor of MP3, from Yucaipa. Xing was acquired by RealNetworks for more than 50x Yucaipas money at risk. Santa Fe Capital Group brought in Bob Kavner, formerly CEO of Overture, NCR and CCA, to run Xing prior to its acquisition. Our firm completed approximately 100 fundings and mergers of ISPs, Web hosting companies and Web app companies in the period 1996 to 2000. On a CoreComm investment, an ISP aggregator, SFCG angel investors made more than 100 x their money. In the 2000s, SFCG angels invested in Cognition Technologies, Inc., a natural language search engine developer, OneSite.com, a leading builder-maintainer of social networks, iBoats.com, the leading social network and online retailer of boats on the Web, ForgeFinder, operator of an online reverse auction engine, OneOncology, which is lowering the cost of cancer drugs and CollisionHub.com, a social network for the auto body repair market among dozens of other early stage social media companies. Additionally, the firm has been an advisor to several middle market leveraged buyouts, management buyouts and recapitalizations in the telecom and staffing industries.Also, Mr. Silver recently released his latest book entitled Monetizing Social Networks, which details the five newest social network business models, revenue channels for these business models and how these social networks can be used to drive participation between consumers and brands.
