Venture Capital is a type of private equity capital

Venture capital investments are generally made as cash in exchange for shares in the invested company. A venture capitalist is a person who makes such investments.

Venture capital can also include managerial and technical expertise.

This form of raising capital is popular among new companies, or ventures, with limited operating history, which cannot raise funds through a debt issue. The downside for entrepreneurs is that venture capitalists usually get a say in company decisions, in addition to a portion of the equity.
