A venture capitalist (also known as a VC) is a person or entity that makes venture investments, and VCs (often structured as an LLC or an LP) usually bring managerial and technical expertise as well as capital to their investments. Venture capital is most attractive for new companies with limited operating histories that are too small to raise capital in the public markets and have not reached the point where they are able to secure adequate bank loans or complete debt offerings.

NVC has identified new, innovate and growing companies that have the potential to generate better than market returns. As such, NVC, through entities that it has managed, has made venture capital investments in exchange for equity interests in these companies. Moreover, NVC’s principals have taken roles in managing the companies it has in invested in, thus adding skills as well as capital.
