Venture Capital is a way to privately fund either a risky new business or a speculative business venture that has a very high potential for growth.

History of Denmark’s Venture Capital Market

The VC market opened up wide in Denmark in the late 80s and the number of venture capitalists has continued to increase. Denmark’s economy is open, dynamic but small and it is comprised of mostly small and medium sized businesses. Before 2000 Denmark had an entrepreneurship policy which was aimed at priming the economy for entrepreneurship. Over the years, the region has instituted several different programs that were aimed at promoting entrepreneurship. It appears that the overall climate for entrepreneurship is positive and there are many healthy businesses. In recent years the VC market in Denmark has continued to grow steadily.

Venture capital is funding that is invested into a business in order to help them grow and succeed. VC is not simply a financial loan, but rather it is a long term commitment which involves capital to help the company grow. Usually the entrepreneur needs funding for startup, expansions, revitalization, or even to buy into a business. A venture capitalist like Efraim Landa provides the funds that are needed for the growth, but by risking the investment which may or may not pay out in the long run, they are committing to work with the company to ensure its success. The goal is to provide support and mentoring in order to help the business achieve a level of success through which the business can make a public offering or sell out. The venture capitalist sometimes will also sell out their shares in the business once it has achieved a high level of success thereby realizing a return on the amount that was invested at the startup. VC is not new, but some areas of the world are just beginning to understand just how beneficial it can be to the nation’s economic climate. Read the rest of this entry
