摘要:

Using a large sample of angel and VC financed startup firms, we address three research questions. First, relative value addition by angels versus by VCs; second, the complementarity versus substitution relationship between angel and VC financing; and third, the relation between the sequence of angel versus VC financing rounds and successful exit. We show that startups financed by angels rather than VCs are associated with lower IPO or acquisition likelihoods, lower sales and employment growth, lower quantity and quality of innovation, and lower net inflow of high-quality inventors. We disentangle selection and monitoring effects using IV and switching regression analyses.
