But, that's exactly what venture capitalists (VC) are supposed to do. As a perfect blend of high risks and doting patience, VCs are, without a doubt, the true helping hands for budding entrepreneurs and innovative breakthrough ideas. In addition to financing needs, VCs also offer mentorship, strategic guidance, network access, and other support. A reason why the young age VC industry is garnering so much attention in today's times.In fact, Indian VCs have played a significant role in the growth of the startup sector of the U.S., especially to young entrepreneurs lacking the required skills on operations and board dynamics. Over the years, numerous VCs have grown in stature to add significant operating value at later stages, while others step in during large board situations. Indian VCs have invested billions of dollars in the U.S. ecosystem to irrevocably change the way the markets function currently.Because these investments are highly risky, VCs seek to invest in startups or firms where small investments can generate huge returns. The most common industries falling in this league are technology, retail trade, and biotechnology to mention a few. The vice versa also holds true, meaning startups and companies are choosing VCs for financing and other support services to grow their business. In fact, over the past two decades, VC backed companies have proven to be the prime driver of economic growth and employment. VC has become an important part of the innovation ecosystem in the U.S. and has helped some of the world's most successful companies to grow and outperform.Spreading more light into the Indian VC ecosystem in the U.S., we have curated content for this special edition by bringing together innovative service providers, changing trends, and needs of the hour. We hope the valuable insights from industry thought-leaders and the VCs featured in this edition will help you in making informed decisions for your endeavors.Let us know your thoughts.Paving the Way for New Innovations*Some of the Insights are based on the interviews with respective CIOs and CXOs to our editorial staffsiliconindiaCopyright © 2013 siliconindia, Inc.
