SVB Financial Group recently hosted a panel discussion titled How Venture Capital Works. The panelists discussed the relationships, decisions, and economics that drive venture capital. The panel included participants representing the three key roles in VC industry dynamics:
Bryan Roberts, Ph.D. -- Partner with Venrock, a leading venture capital firm
Judith Elsea -- Co-Founder and Managing Director of Weathergage Capital, a fund-of-funds and limited partner in venture capital investing
John Mendlein, Ph.D. -- Chairman of Fate Therapeutics, an emerging company backed by venture funding.
Michael Hanewich moderator and Head of Silicon Valley Banks Life Sciences East practice.
It would be helpful if the VC or Angel firm could tell you who would be a better fit, rather than just saying they are not interested, and putting one back into the search, and the hazards therein. This includes the demands from each individual filrm, for submission of information into the format they want. It differs every time, and is usually more involved than the Executive Summary only. Be prepared to fill out form and rethink your proposal.
