The most valuable companies U.S. Venture Partners still holds — unicorns and thoroughbreds it has backed, ordered by Dealroom’s latest valuation. Companies that have been acquired or gone public are in Exits instead. Where a cap table names U.S. Venture Partners directly, the stake and its estimated value are shown too.
