NVCA Predicts Venture Capital Trends for 2008

The National Venture Capital Association (NVCA) has released its predicitons for the New Year, based on a survey of many of companies in the venture capital industry. Many VC firms, like Arthur Trueger's BerkeleyVC, are looking forward to a positive year.

Venture capitalists are forecasting an active year for the industry with high growth in the CleanTech sector, an improving IPO market and fewer venture firms in 2008. These predictions are among the top line findings of the NVCA 2008 Predictions Survey. The results also show concerns about global investments in certain regions including China. Additionally, the industry believes fund sizes will become larger and returns for limited partners of venture capital funds will improve in both the short and long term horizons.
