A Venture Capitalist (or, VC for short) is a professional investor that manages a venture fund.
These funds are similar to Mutual Funds, but instead of investing in stocks, they invest in privately-held start-up companies.
Venture capital financing is funding provided to companies and entrepreneurs. It can be provided at different stages of their evolution, although it often involves early and seed round funding.
