Ask HN: Source for data on VC firms? (For a university project, not my company)
I am trying to find some straight forward (and not-so-straight-forward) quantitative and qualitative data points on venture capital firms and thought someone on here might know a source or two for this information (other than the firms' website as my experience so far is that a lot of the information isn't available).
Data points I'm looking for:
- Fund size
- Avg # of investments made per year
- Types and sizes of companies invested in
- Major factors used to evaluate potential investments
- Methodologies used to value firms
- Structure, length, and detail of proposals required of entrepreneurs who are seeking financing
- The typical types of financing provided (some firms do VC, loans, partnerships, etc.)
- The percentage of firms considered who get financing
I completely understand a lot of this information is potentially a source of competitive advantage but I want to get as much as possible.
Thanks in advance for your help!
