Venture capitalists still giving in weak economy

by ShannonCherry on November 30th, 2007

Fortune Small Business just featured a story on how small businesses aren’t feeling the credit crunch.

growing your businessBut what I found interesting in the story is it said that venture capitalist are still willing to invest, despite how other lenders are feeling.

If true, this is great news for start ups looking for some funds to ramp up their businesses.

But here’s a suggestion. If you’ve been toying with the idea of finding a venture capitalist to fund your project, now is probably the time to do it. With the changing economy, who knows what they will be feeling about investing in the near future.

    I don’t think VC’s will pay much attention to the credit crunch, it doesn’t really affect their business.

    There might well be some new business opportunities that come out of the fallout however…
