Venture Capital
Venture Capital Main Venture Capital (VC) is funds invested or available for investment in potentially highly profitable enterprises at considerable risk of loss. Venture capital is often used interchangeably with other terms such as risk capital, patient capital or equity financing.
Venture Capitalists are companies or individuals who provide investment capital, management expertise and experience. In return for their investment, Venture Capitalists will take an equity position in the company, usually in proportion to the amount of their investment and the level of risk involved. The future return on their investment is tied to the performance of your company.
