Abstract

Given the growing economic impact of venture capital and the increasing amount of scholarly work in this field, an assessment of the relevance and value of venture capital research to practicing venture capitalists is appropriate. To better understand its usefulness, we employed a Delphi methodology to solicit professional venture capitalists' insight on existing research, on expected changes in the venture capital environment, and on the most relevant research topics going forward. We found VCs seek more research in exit strategies and performance, and less in fundraising. VCs also indicated that ongoing structural changes in the industry can inform future research directions.
