Ageno School of Business GOLDEN GATE UNIVERSITY Summer Term, 2009 San Jose Campus Mon 6-8:40pm FI 318 – VENTURE CAPITAL & START-UP FINANCING Course Outline Course Description: This course examines the strategic and financial issues facing high-growth start-ups. Students develop a sophisticated understanding of the tools and techniques employed by successful entrepreneurs in raising start-up, growth, and acquisition capital for their ventures. Students also will explore alternative financing sources, notably venture capital and angel investors. In addition, students will review the exit strategies available to companies, including IPOs and mergers. Topics discussed include: the history and current direction of the venture capital industry, valuation techniques for new ventures and established private firms, raising venture capital and alternative financing, entrepreneurial management issues in capital raising, maintaining control and direction, and harvesting the venture via IPO or merger. Through two short case studies and an individual project, each student will have an opportunity to personalize the learning process by applying the analytical tools of entrepreneurial finance to real cases and by selecting and studying a highly entrepreneurial industry of personal interest.

Entrepreneurs complain that there is not enough money. The current investment structures are keeping the two parties apart. 50% of the Worlds GDP comes from small to medium enterprises, yet most of it is off limits to sophisticated investors. Learn how adopting an entrepreneurial approach with a fixation on liquidity can allow all investors to make big returns investing in small business. WBAF Faculty Member to lead the session Callum Laing, Partner in Unity Group Private Equity Callum Laing is an entrepreneur and investor. He is partner in Unity Group Private Equity, Co-Founder and Chairman of MBH Corporation PLC, and is the originator of ‘Accelerated Venture Capital’ (AVC).

  • A Randomized Field Experiment on Early Stage Investments
    Is it Just the Idea that Matters? A Randomized Field Experiment on Early Stage Investments Shai Bernstein, Arthur Korteweg, and Kevin Laws* Abstract Which start-up characteristics are most important to investors in early-stage firms? This paper uses a randomized field experiment involving 4,500 active, high profile, early stage investors, implemented through AngelList, an online platform that matches investors with start-ups that are seeking capital. The experiment randomizes investors’ information sets on “featured” start-ups through the use of nearly 17,000 emails. Investors respond strongly to information about the founding team, whereas they do not respond to information about either firm traction or existing lead investors. This result is driven by the most experienced and successful investors. The least experienced investors respond to all categories of information. We present evidence that the information materially impacts investment rates in start-up companies. The results suggest that, conditional on the quality of the idea, information about human assets is highly important for the success of early stage firms. JEL classification: G32, L26, D23 Keywords: Angels, Early stage firms, Entrepreneurship, Crowdfunding, Theory of the firm Current Draft: March, 2014 * Shai Bernstein ([email protected]) and Arthur Korteweg ([email protected]) are from Stanford Graduate School of Business, and Kevin Laws is from AngelList, LLC. We thank Wayne Ferson, Steve Kaplan, seminar participants at Harvard Business School, UCLA, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, University of Maryland, University of Southern California, University of Texas at Austin, and brown bag participants at the UC Berkeley Fung Institute and Stanford for helpful comments.
