Abstract

Venture capital (VC) has transcended its Silicon Valley origins to become a global force shaping the innovation and economic landscape. It is imperative to recognize the critical role of VC and improve its success rate. Employing the “jockey-horse-meadow” model, this paper identifies three crucial determinants influencing VC success: the entrepreneurial team, strategic approach and business model, and the market context. Delving into specific sub-points, the paper underscores the unique significance of each determinant, substantiating their pivotal roles in shaping VC outcomes. This research not only contributes insights into the success dynamics of VCs but also serves as a valuable reference for startups seeking financing and development. Additionally, it offers guidance to investors navigating the selection process, aiding them in identifying startups with genuine potential for impactful investment. By shedding light on these fundamental factors, this paper enriches the discourse surrounding VC success, fostering a more informed and strategic approach in the dynamic world of venture capital.
