If there are two words that have generated more money and harnessed new technology superseding anything else over the last decade, that is Venture Capital. Venture capital is associated with some of the most high-growth and influential firms in the world. No, here is a statistic. Let’s take the top 10 companies in the world by market capitalisation. Out of them, 7 are American and 6 of them stem from a V.C route. Apple, Amazon, Microsoft, Tesla, Alphabet and Meta - just short of Warren Buffet’s holding company, Berkshire Hathaway. It is a decisive argument that the very idea of throwing money at nothing but an idea and making that pipe dream a reality, has shaped up innovation especially in a diverse disruptive economy like the united states possible. But that being said, it is also to be considered that for every Apple and Amazon, there are thousands of Theranos(s). Academics and practitioners have effectively articulated the strengths of the venture model. At the same time, venture capital financing also has real limitations in its ability to advance substantial technological change. So what we will do in today’s episode is understand every nuance about venture capital, how exactly V.Cs work, what are the benefits and deficiencies faced by the industry and lastly, what effect does this kind of money to fuel disruptive ideas have on the Economy. Let’s find out. As always, Thank You so much for taking the time in listening as well as reading this.
