Sell-Side Pitching: A Banker’s Perspective

Venture Capital firms are focused on both investment and mentoring. VC firms
offer entrepreneurs with much more than financial support; they also offer
technical and managerial skills.
It is an investment whose returns occur over a long period of time, usually 5 to
10 years. Investors in a venture capital fund typically expect an annual return
of 25% to 35% by the end of the holding period of the investment. A VC firm
finds businesses through pitch competitions, demo days, hackathons, and
conferences. Other channels they use involve digital media like webinars,
podcasts, newsletters, blogs, and social networking.
