Abstract

A new venture valuation by venture capitalists is a particular delicate task, since they don't historical data to make a forecast. Guided by established theories in strategic management, the article proposes a theoretical rationale and develops an integrated theoretical framework to investigate new valuation. Statistical analyses are conducted on 184 rounds of venture capital financing accounting for 102 new ventures. The empirical results help to establish an initial linkage between the well-developed theories in strategic management and under-researched venture capital valuation practice.
