Course Content

To be successful. Venture Capitalists must have a broad general knowledge of business and all its disciplines: marketing, management, finance, operations, accounting, and so on. In addition, most VCs must acquire specialized knowledge in one or more hign-technology industries. However, it is not possible to cover all these areas in one course. This course focuses almost exclusively on finance, specifically on the valuation of high-technology investments.
