Venture Capital
Venture capital is capital provided by external investors for financing of new, growing or struggling businesses. Venture capital investments generally are high risk investments but offer the potential for above average returns. A venture capitalist (VC) is a person who makes such investments. A venture capital fund is a pooled investment vehicle (often a partnership) that primarily invests the financial capital of third-party investors in enterprises that are too risky for the standard capital markets or bank loans. For aspiring entrepreneurs looking to locate and secure venture capital they have the option of seeking the support of a mentor capitalist. A mentor capitalist is an expert not only in acquiring capital but can also provide support and direction to early start-ups. Venture capital general partners (also known as "VCs") may be former chief executives at firms similar to those which the partnership funds. Investors in venture capital funds are typically large institutions with large amounts of pecuniary resources. Other positions at venture capital firms include venture partners and entrepreneur-in-residence (EIR). Venture partners "bring in deals" and receive income only on deals they work on. EIRs are experts in a particular domain and perform due diligence on potential deals. EIRs are engaged by VC firms temporarily (six to 18 months) and are expected to develop and pitch startup ideas to their host firm (although neither party is bound to work with each other). Venture capital is not befitting for many entrepreneurs. Venture capitalists are very selective in determining what to invest in. They are most interested in enterprises with high growth potential, as only such opportunities are likely capable of providing the financial returns and successful exit event within the required timeframe that venture capitalists expect.
