Allen Morgan has spent nearly 25 years counseling entrepreneurs throughout the startup company process, first as a well-known Silicon Valley lawyer and, since 1999, as a partner at Mayfield. Having closed more than 650 venture capital financings, mergers and acquisitions, IPOs and other public offerings in his career, Allen brings a broad base of startup experience to bear on behalf of entrepreneurs. At Mayfield, Allen's principal focus is on two major investment areas: enterprise software applications and infrastructure, particularly innovative solutions that enhance knowledge-worker productivity, as well as on startups in the area of consumer internet, interactive entertainment and new media. More specifically, Allen focuses on social networking, wikis, blogs, and RSS businesses. He was a panelist on social networking at the Red Herring December 2003 conference and was a panelist at Chris Shipley's Blog On event in July 2004. Allen currently sits on the Board of Directors of Beatnik, Electric Cloud, Jobster, JotSpot, PlanetOut Partners (LGBT), Pluck, Scalix, Serious Magic, Snap, Tribe.net, and Varsity Group (VSTY). Prior to joining Mayfield, Allen was a partner with renowned Silicon Valley law firms, Latham & Watkins and Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati. Allen earned an undergraduate degree (summa cum laude and Phi Beta Kappa) from Dartmouth College, a second bachelor's degree and master's degree from Oxford University (Christ Church) and a J.D. from the University of Virginia.
