Annual ranking of dealmakers in technology by Forbes magazine
The Forbes Midas list is the annual ranking by Forbes magazine of the most influential and best-performing venture capital investors. Described by Kara Swisher as the "Oscars for venture capitalists in tech,"[1] the Midas List uses parameters that include the first-day market capitalization of IPOs and the opinions of a panel of experts.[2]
The name alludes to the mythological King Midas, renowned for his ability to turn anything he touched into gold. Forbes partnered with venture capital fund TrueBridge Capital Partners to create the list from 2011 to 2016.[3][4][5][6]
