What is Venture Capital?
Venture capital in Indonesia - Capital venture is a form of private equity that finances start-ups and startups with little or no operating history but has significant growth opportunities. Newly opened companies sell their ownership shares to venture capital (VC) funds in return for technical support, to managerial expertise in return. VC investors will typically participate in the field of management and also assist the company's young executives in making decisions to drive growth. Startup founders have in-depth knowledge of the business they are taking, but they may lack the skills and knowledge needed to regrow a growing company, while venture capital is an expert in guiding a new company.
The fundamental difference between private equity and VC lies in the age of the company or the length of the company's establishment. Private equity will typically invest in established companies where they have been operating for years, even decades. Capital or funds in ventures are devoted to start-up companies which are usually not exclusively and technology-based such as ICT, Fintech, etc.
