Based on your Internet research in problem 1, can you answer the following?
a. We described different types of venture capital funds that exist in Canada. What are the main differences in investment goals and characteristics between these funds? Do some types of funds appear to participate more in earlier stage financing than others?
b. Do some venture capitalists appear to specialize by investing in only a few selected industries, while others are more diversified in their investment activity? Can you think of some good reasons for firms pursuing either of the two strategies?
c. Venture capitalists have geographical preferences for their investment activity. Can you discern some common motivations for such preferences?
