Frequently asked questions

What was Southeast Interactive's investment strategy?

The firm made early-stage equity investments in technology companies headquartered in the Southeastern United States. Sectors included enterprise software, internet infrastructure, digital media, and business-to-business platforms. The fund thesis relied on proximity to research universities — Duke, UNC-Chapel Hill, NC State — and the corporate research campuses clustered around Research Triangle Park.

How many funds did Southeast Interactive raise?

The firm raised two committed venture capital funds over its lifecycle. Exact fund sizes have not been widely disclosed, though public records indicate limited partners included institutional investors and regional family offices. Southeast Interactive wound down active investment operations by the mid-2000s, with remaining portfolio positions distributed to limited partners.

Is Southeast Interactive still actively investing?

No. The firm ceased making new investments and wound down its fund management operations by the mid-2000s. David Blivin and Charles Merritt each transitioned to other roles. Blivin served on boards of portfolio companies and in operating executive roles, while Merritt remained involved with regional investment activity.
