Abstract:     
Facing the downturn in late 2008, the partners in the West-Coast-based corporate venturing arm of a Taiwanese electronics manufacturer are trying to decide how to manage their portfolio companies and whether to make new investments. Not only must they consider the particulars of each company individually, but they must also think about how to manage the entire firm's portfolio.
