Venture capital is provided by outside investors for to fund new, expanding or struggling businesses.
It is very high risk and Venture Capitalists require the potential of large returns to compensate for
that.
Business angels are wealthy individuals who operate in much the same way as Venture Capitalists but
will operate on different levels. Where a venture capital fund is likely to be operating in the low £millions,
Business Angels will consider smaller ventures…thus bridging the gap between friends and family
and venture capitalists.
