What is Venture Capital?

For private firms that seek greater capital, venture capital often fills the gap ahead of attempting to bring the company to the public markets. There are hundreds if not thousands of companies that seek to add venture funds to private enterprises, often specializing in an industry, geographic area or company size.

Venture capital firms seek a successful business that needs greater funds to grow to the next level. They can fund millions of dollars from their pool of funds but also demand control in the form of seats on the board, ownership of the company and often only invest if they can establish huge return expectations within a few years at most. If these plans work out often it entails bringing the private company to the public market to be able to cash out their stake.
