This is the first comprehensive book that aims to understand how the novel coronavirus has impacted the venture capital industry. The analysis suggests that the industry has been undergoing profound changes. Specifically, the book assesses the short- and long-term impact of the economic, political, and social restrictions post COVID-response on different stakeholders in the venture capital ecosystem, including general partners (GPs), limited partners (LPs), and entrepreneurs. It also aims to answer the question whether current changes to the venture capital industry are likely to renew and promote its overhaul, or simply perpetuate its decline. The book will be of interest to students, academics, and researchers focusing on venture capital and private equity, entrepreneurial finance, entrepreneurship, and new venture creation as well as industry practitioners
