There are many different definitions of what is meant by venture capital. As late as the mid- seventies, Liles8 presented a broad spectrum of definitions of venture capital investment: investment in any high-risk financial venture;investment in unproven ideas, products, or start-up situations; i. e. the provision of what is called ’seed capital’;investment in going concerns that are unable to raise funds from conventional public or commercial sources,investment in large and - in some cases - controlling interests in publicly traded companies where there is a considerable degree of uncertainty.
