Venture Capital is a very specific type of funding with a specific type of risk profile. If you don't like the implications, then don't seek Venture Capital.
This is what people don't understand. No one is forcing you to be a venture backed company.
- cookingrobot 7y agoIs that a semantic argument - that low risk investments should be called something other than "venture capital"? What term would be best for that? Note that VC does have a wide variety of risk profiles - with later stage usually being lower risk and earlier stage being higher. Who serves the market of early, low-medium risk (and therefore lower returns)?
