Books on the world of Venture Capital
Tuesday, February 7th, 2012I have recently read two very good books on the world of Venture Capital that I would like to recommend:
- Venture Deals: Be Smarter Than Your Lawyer and Venture Capitalist by Brad Feld and Jason Mendelson, this book describes the role of VCs, how an entrepreneur should deal with them (the General Partners) and what it means to raise VCs money.
- The Business of Venture Capital: Insights from Leading Practitioners on the Art of Raising a Fund, Deal Structuring, Value Creation, and Exit Strategies by Mahendra Ramsinghani, this book describes the world of VCs from the perspective of the Limited Partners (LP) and the General Partners (GP).
this two books complement each other and give a great perspective on how the VC system works.
