Venture Capitalist Report Sunil Mody - Final Analysis Summary What is a Venture Capitalist Firm? A venture capitalist firm is a group of experienced professionals who help company CEO’s raise money for operating capital. Their expertise in management and financing, combined with a commitment to help a venture grow, improve the chances of a significant return to investors. What we did? In order to understand the venture capitalist sector and to see how AIESEC can relate to it, we decided to meet with a firm in the Ann Arbor area. This resulted favorably in a one hour discussion with the firm, Arbor Partners, LLC. Since they are the 2nd largest venture capitalist firm in the Ann Arbor area with a high level of assets, they are a good representation of the sector because any smaller firm would have been more difficult to approach. During the meeting, we asked a series of questions (transcribed down below) in addition to us being very open to what they felt was important about their firm. Analysis: Since venture capital firms invest money into startup companies, there is very little opportunity for international growth in both the VC firm and the invested firm. The offices are small, and their new hires are generally only the contacts they have. Even as of right now, international operations do not exist. . We were told other VC firms do not have an international department. The only opening for AIESEC is to check in the future if venture capital firms are doing any research internationally. Then we have some potential of helping them towards their goals. Final Statement: Currently, there is no reason for AIESEC to approach venture capitalist firms.  How are Venture Capitalist Firm Works Cited Information Source: Jonathan Roosevelt Venture capital is high-risk, high-return investing in support of business creation and growth.
