...The Basic Venture Capital Formula (No Dilution) This method is used to determine how much should the venture capitalist invest in a company to obtain a certain required rate of return RRI after long period of time. Example: Let us suppose that venture capitalist want to invest $10mm in company X that would not require any additional capital through 6 years and the company expect to earn $9mm dollar in year 6, and this company has commanding price / earnings (PER) equal to 22. The venture capitalist expect 60% required rate of return (RRI). Fact summary Required rate of return RRI: Investment: Term: Year 6 net income: Year 6 PER: 60% $10mm 6 $9mm 22 Required future value (investment) = (1 + IRR) years x (investment) = (1 + .6)6 x ($10mm) = $167.8 mm So the venture capitalist’s stocks value should be equal $167.8mm in year 6 to achieve 60% annual return. Total Terminal Value = PER x Terminal Net Income = 22 x $9mm = $198mm after 6 years the company as whole would worth $198mm. Final ownership required = ������������������������������������������������ ������������������������������������ ������������������������������ ������������������������������������������������������������ ������������������������������ ������������������������������������������������ ������������������������������ Final ownership required = $167.8mm / $198mm = 84.34%. The required percent ownership after 6 years should be 84.34% “and it is equal to beginning percent ownership because the company doesn’t...

...Start Up Stage (창업단계) 1) 개요 창업단계의 벤처기업은 최근에 설립된 회사로서 보통 상업화가 가능한 제품을 보유하고 있으며 경영진이 구성되고, 사업계획서가 작성되어 있다. 창업단계에 필요한 창업자금은 제품개발을 완성하고 사업계획을 가지고 기업화하는 단계에 필요하지만, 높은 위험이 따르기 때문에 벤처케피탈들도 이 단계에서 투자를 꺼리는 것이 보통이다. 따라서 일반적인 경우는 기업가의 자기자금이나 개인적인 담보에 의한 대출들로 자금을 조달 할 수 밖에 없는데 이에는 한계가 있기 때문에 창업이 순조롭게 이루어지지 않는 경우가 많다. 하지만 오늘날 많은 벤처캐피탈이 매우 잠재력이 높은 기업을 발견하여 조기에 상당한 수익을 얻기 위하여 앞을 다투고 있다. 개인적 네트워크를 통한 자금조달 이외에 국내외에서 어떠한 방법으로 창업단계의 기업이 자금을 조달 할 수 있는지 살펴보도록 하겠다. 2) Private Equity Investment 'Private Equity'란 Public Equity(상장주)와 반대되는 개념으로서 기업공개 이전 상태에 있는 비상장기업의 지분(비상장주) 의미로도 쓰이지만, 비상장기업에 대해 협상(private negotiation)을 통하여 다양한 형태의 투자를 전문적으로 수행하는 투자자금(fund) 또는 투자조직으로 더 많이 사용된다. Private Equity (Fund)는 공모(public offerings)가 아닌 사모(private placements)방식에 의해 조달된 재원을 통하여 주로 비상장 기업에 투자하는 자금(funds) 또는 투자방법을 의미한다. Private Equity의 종류는 크게 창업단계 및 초기 성장단계(early stage investment) 기업에 대한 투자를 전문적으로 수행하는 '벤처캐피탈'과 초기 성장단계 투자를 제외한 모든 형태의 비상장기업에 대한 투자를 지칭하는 'Private Equity'로 구분된다. Private Equity 투자프로세스를 살펴보면, 적극적인 투자 전략하에 투자대상을 발굴하고, 기업정밀실사 및 투자조건에 대한 협상을 통하여 투자를 실행하며 투자 이후에는 투자기업의 기업가치 증대를 위한 다양한 노력을 기울임으로써 투자수익을 극대화 한다. 이와 같이 Private Equity 투자는 상장기업에 대한 투자와는 달리 투자대상 기업이 속한 산업 및 업종에 대한 전문적인 지식을 바탕으로 투자대상 기업을 발굴하고 유리한 투자조건을 이끌어 낼 수 있는 협상력과 투자수익 제고를 위한 투자기업의 기업가치 증대능력이 요구되는 전문적인 투자 방식이다. 비상장기업의 자금조달의 필요성과 자금조달 규모, 기업의 성숙도에 따라 각기 다른 형태의 투자 방법이 출현할 수 있다. (아래 그림 참조) 아래 그림과 같이, Seed Stage에서 Star-up Stage에 이르는 시기, 즉, 구체화된 사업아이디어에 대한 R&D투자를 통해 상업화가 가능한 제품을 개발하는 단계에서는 기업화 초기단계에 천사처럼 나타나 필요한 자금을...

(staff, 2010) Our business is one that is in a sector that VC’s will tend to back and likely experience exceptional growth and because we only get one chance to make a first impression our plan must be clear and precise.

The plan to use equity financing for our medical device company will simply allow us to share ownership of our business in exchange for money.

In addition, the near east led to even closer collaboration between Israel and the US, which is the top foreign investot in Israel, accounting $19.7 billion of the $74.4 billion in FDI in 2012, or 26.5% of the total (Kumar et al., 2009, p. 11).

...Abstract There are literally hundreds of thousands of college athletes in the United States, every one of whom was recruited in some way by the school that they decided to attend. In most cases, high athletes will consider multiple schools before eventually making a final decision. As a former college athlete myself, I took part in this exact decision making process, and can recall just how difficult and time consuming it proved to be. Today’s athletic world lacks a networking website that provides athletes and college recruiters with a convenient platform in order to connect with one another. The site will also link tournament directors with coaches of travel teams in order to address the same issues. Sportal will be the website to solve these problems. Product/Service description Each athlete will have his or her own personal Sportal page, stating basic information including current school, height and weight, game statistics, lifting amounts, running times, and player videos. Also included on the athlete’s personal page will be a “Commitment Status.” This will let potentially interested college recruiters know whether or not an athlete has already made a verbal or written commitment to a certain school. This will help save large amounts of time in the areas of research, phone calls, and visits to athletes who have already made a commitment to play somewhere else. Users will be able to choose whether or not their profile will be public or private to the remainder...
