CRV

CRV appears in Eric Migicovsky on Pebble, Kickstarter, and Building for Yourself as the venture firm that invested about $15 million in Pebble in 2013. The source places that financing inside Pebble’s post-Kickstarter attempt to turn a breakout hardware campaign into a larger venture-backed consumer-electronics company.

CRV’s wiki role in this source is contextual. The firm helps mark the transition from crowdfunding proof and shipping the first product into the growth-capital track where revenue targets, competition, inventory planning, and later Venture Debt Operational Risk became more consequential.
