- "The Midas List" - Forbes Magazine
Forbes annual ranking of the Top 100 people who are most influential in creating wealth for their investors and building valuable and long lasting High-Technology and Life Science companies. Forbes surveyed 1,000 VCs, angels, bankers, recruiters and limited partners in developing the 2006 Midas List. In 2007, Forbes changed the candidate selection criteria for the "Midas List" and omitted certain types of service providers from consideration. Although no longer eligible for inclusion on the "Midas List," Devine and Virnig's tradition of investing in its pre-public clients and maintaining a high level of post-placement involvement remains constant and continues today.
