Venture capital involves private or institutional investment in early-stage companies with potential for growth. Venture capital funds are organized with general partners who raise money from limited partners and make investment decisions to fund startups. The proposed Z2 project would create an integrated database to store information about VCs, startups, founders, deals, and funds to better understand factors contributing to startup success or failure.

The 10 rules to build a badass startup team by Alice ZaguryTheFamily
"Building a great team isn't enough, you need to build a cult."
There are many things that can determine the success or the failure of your startup, but no factor is more powerful and more in your control than how you build your team.
In a startup, execution is EVERYTHING.
You need the right people, and you need the right mindset.
Alice Zagury knows a little bit about this...
Alice Zagury is cofounder & CEO of TheFamily, a private investor (300+ startups, $100M+ raised for top companies). Previously, she created the first startup accelerator in France, Le Camping. She's had a lot of experience on hiring & culture, being around startups for many years and working on her own team at TheFamily.
As a startup founder, there are a few key questions you should be asking before you get too far into building your venture that will help you evaluate whether it's worth the investment of your time and resources. Things like: how big of an opportunity is this? Who else is trying to address this opportunity? How will our startup be different from the competition? Learn about how to get the answers to these, and other critical questions that will help you assess the opportunity.

An Introduction to the World of Venture CapitalScott Tominaga
When startups need funding, venture capital is one option they might consider. Getting funding from a VC firm can offer certain advantages to new businesses that may not be able to get approved for traditional loans. Thanks to the rise of crowdfunding, it’s now becoming decidedly more mainstream.

Venture capital is money provided by professionals who alongside management invest in
young (startup firms and small businesses), rapidly growing companies that have the
potential to develop into significant economic contributors.

General Partners
These are the “Venture Capitalists” you will deal with. They may have been Entrepreneurs in a prior life or
they might be financial types. they are responsible for:
(Source Deals, Make Investment Decisions, Manage the Investments and harvest the Investments)
The General Partners use an Offering Memorandum to raise a fund of a given size from the
Limited Partners by convincing them that the GPs have a unique strategy or expertise in a
particular sector or sectors of the market. Fund raising can take a year or more.
If the GPs are successful they will convince enough Limited Partners to invest enough
money to achieve the size fund offered.
