Intro Expert Advisor Deal Exec Social Next Steps Background David Teten is currently leading the first-ever research study on “Best Practices of Venture Capitalists in Increasing Portfolio Company Value through Operational Improvement”. In 2010, he completed the first-ever research project on “Best Practices in Private Equity and Venture Capital Deal Origination”. His coauthor for the deal origination research was Chris Farmer, Venture Partner, General Catalyst. These slides provide some of the learnings and underlying data from the research studies. David and Chris have published their findings in the Journal of Private Equity (Winter 2010); Mergers & Acquisitions (December 2010); Institutional Investor (October 2010); and Harvard Business Review (June 2010), among other venues. Evalueserve, a global research firm and the acquirer of David’s former company (Circle of Experts), provided supporting research and analytics in the initial phases of the deal origination study. For this research, we also thank research associates Yujin Chung (Andreessen Horowitz) and Neha Kumar (Anklesaria Group), and interns Corentin Roux dit Buisson, Dan Clark, Nitin Gupta, and Nikhil Iyer .© David Teten 2012.
