To this end, measures to resolve the funding shortage faced by venture startups (identified as such firms’ biggest hurdle) should be prepared. This paper proposes a serious of measures to promote technology-knowledge-intensive start-ups through private venture capital (VC), it is necessary to prepare a plan to revitalize angel investment, which plays an important role in the stage prior to VC investment.
