| Abstract: | New ventures present some unique problem in analysis and prediction. Venture capitalists are experts who identify and select entrepreneur characteristics that they consider to be positively related to a successful venture outcome. Models are developed on the basis of venture capitalists' judgements for entrepreneur characteristics and for the level of venture success. A second set of models is based on actual venture outcome as the criterion. The performance of the models and expert judgements are compared. |
