Venture capital and buyout fundraising slowed in the fourth quarter of 2006 but both saw record-breaking years. Venture capital funds raised $2.83 billion in the fourth quarter, the lowest amount in three years, but $28.6 billion for the full year, the highest since 2001. Buyout funds raised $17.83 billion in the fourth quarter and $102.9 billion for the full year, an all-time high. The deceleration in fundraising was expected and welcomed as it signals a shift to investing funds already raised.

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
ย
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

PRIVATE EQUITY FUNDRAISING RECEDES IN FOURTH QUARTER
Venture Capital Records Highest Year Since 2001; Buyouts Funds Reach All Time High
New York, NY January 16, 2007 ---Private equity fundraising activity slowed considerably in the fourth
quarter of 2006 but still broke records for the full year according to Thomson Financial and the National
Venture Capital Association (NVCA). During the quarter, 37 venture capital funds raised a total of $2.83
billion and 39 Buyout and Mezzanine funds raised $17.83 billion. Despite this slower pace, venture capital
saw the highest fundraising year since 2001 with 200 funds raising $28.5 billion. Buyout and Mezzanine
funds recorded the highest year ever with 138 funds raising $102.9 billion.
โThe deceleration of fundraising in private equity this quarter was expected and welcomed for a number of
reasons,โ said Mark Heesen, president of the National Venture Capital Association. โOn the venture side,
we are coming to the end of the current fundraising cycle as most firms are now turning their attention to
investing the funds raised in the last three years. Additionally, the venture industry is extremely wary of
bringing too much liquidity into the asset class. We want to keep fund sizes reasonable so dollars can be
deployed smartly. The discipline exercised this year by the venture firms has been commendable. We
hope the same holds true on the buyout side.โ

Buyout and Mezzanine Fundraising
Following their venture capital counterparts in a slowdown, 39 buyout/mezzanine funds raised $17.83
billion in 4Q2006 but when the final 2006 numbers were totaled, buyouts fundraising hit an all-time high of
$102.94 billion with 138 funds.

LP which closed $2.75 billion. Some notable buyout funds closings were Hellman & Friedman Capital
Partners VI with $2.70 billion and Green Equity Investors V closing with $1.997 billion.
โDespite the decrease in private equity fundraising for the quarter, it was a banner year for private equity
fundraising as a whole,โ said Alex Tan, Global Private Equity Research Manger of Thomson Financial.
โThis sets the stage for an intriguing and exciting private equity environment for 2007.โ
