Abstract

Due to the rapid growth of venture capital industry in developing countries, it is essential to provide a diagnosis on its development and future growth in order to maintain its success and continuous financing support on local firms. This study will focus on the venture capital industry in Bangladesh because it was established barely for seven years and there are only a total of four venture capital companies operating investment activities with local firms in Bangladesh. Compared to other southern Asian countries, such as India which already has a well-built venture capital industry, the venture capital industry in Bangladesh is still at its infant age. Therefore, this study will explore a pattern for Bangladesh to observe future development of the venture capital industry based on its banking and financing system. A case study approach will be applied by conducting interviews to three venture capital companies and their partnering investee firms to explore the factors influencing venture capital development in Bangladesh. In addition, this study will also investigate the opportunities and challenges venture capitalist and investee firms have to face in the future.
