Benchmarking the Global VC Industry -- Emerging vs. Mature Markets

This presentation will compare the more mature venture capital markets of the United States, Europe, and Israel with the larger emerging venture capital markets of China and India.

Most analyses being presented are as recent as the second and third quarters of 2009 and will include:

1. Venture capital investment by number of deals and dollar amounts by stage and industry
2. Valuation benchmarks by industry and geography
3. Exit benchmarks by industry sector and exchange 
4. Comparing specific differences of startups through their life cycles
5. Venture capital firms investing in other geographies
6. Cleantech deals and their latest performances

The methodology used in the analysis differs from the traditional Western model (comparison by round), since the investment patterns in emerging markets are very different.
