Equity Terms - In the last few decades, Venture Capital (VC) and Private Equity (PE) have emerged as extremely important sources of capital for businesses. VC is financial capital provided to early-stage, high-potential, growing start-up companies. The VC fund makes money by owning equity in the companies it invests in, which usually have a novel technology or business model in high technology industries, such as biotechnology, IT, software, etc. Over these decades, VC / PE funds have also been noted as one of the best alternative asset classes for investments. Venture capital, as an industry, originated in the USA and American firms have traditionally been the largest participants in venture deals. However, increasingly, non-US venture investment is growing and the number of non-US VC funds has been on the rise. VCs and PEs have been instrumental in fostering innovation, entrepreneurship and employment generation. According to the National Venture Capital Association 11% of private sector jobs come from venture backed companies and venture backed revenue accounts for 21% of US GDP. Outside the US, VC has been used as a tool for economic development in a variety of developing regions. In many of the emerging economies with less developed financial sectors, VC plays a role in facilitating access to finance for small and medium enterprises (SMEs), which in most cases would not qualify for receiving bank loans. As Increasing number of businesses in these regions seek funding from this source. For example, India in year 2010, saw $8.1 billion of capital invested across 369 PE and VC deals, a noteworthy jump of around 80% as against the $4.5 billion invested in 2009 across 329 deals. Winjit Technologies (Winthat give a comprehensive understanding of the VC/PE industry.

With this suite of terms, we aim to translate the VC/PE lingo into an easy-to-understand manual for entrepreneurs and SMEs seeking investments, potential investors and individuals seeking career opportunities in this domain.
