Abstract
We address the question: do technology investors differ from traditional investors? Employing a conjoint methodology, we identified 28 technology investors from a sample of 68 European early stage investors. Comparing the two groups of investors we found that: (1) technology investors were not more likely to receive public funding than traditional investors; (2) technology investors had more investment management experience than traditional investors; and (3) technology investors had more consulting experience than traditional investors. Our research has implications for public policy, aimed at resolving the market failure for high-tech investments, high-tech entrepreneurs looking for venture capital (VC) funding, and VC funds.
