Strategy and performance of new ventures: A contingency model of the role and influence of the venture capitalist

Pages 231-250 | Published online: 26 Nov 2010
 

The strategic activities of venture capitalists are regarded as their major contributions to their portfolio companies' performance. However, apart from a general consensus as to the different supporting roles the VC provides, little is known about how the VC specifically adds value to the venture's strategy and performance. In our paper, we address the expected fit between the value-adding activities of the VC on the one hand and the venture's strategy on the other hand, showing that a multi-theoretical approach is instrumental to explore the value-adding contribution of the VC to the venture's strategy and performance.
