VC economics run on power laws: a few outsized winners must pay for the rest, which shapes what gets funded and at what expected scale.
자주 묻는 질문
Is venture capital right for every startup?
No; VC fits businesses aiming at very large outcomes on compressed timelines. Strong companies with moderate ceilings are better served by revenue, debt, or angels.
How do venture funds make money?
Management fees (commonly 2 percent) plus carried interest (commonly 20 percent of profits) on successful exits.
