For years I’ve complained about rankings of venture capitalists, most notably the Forbes Midas List. Not because I’m anti-rankings (I’m not) but, rather, because I’ve felt that they often include too many qualitative criteria, pay too little attention to deal attribution and ignored exits that are cash-small but multiple-big.
Readers have generally nodded their collective head in agreement, and then asked if I was going to try to build a better mousetrap.
