This book is a 'crossover' treatment of quantitative and
qualitative risk analysis within the setting of new high technology
ventures in the UK. Reid and Smith have based their research on
extensive fieldwork in patent-intensive, high-technology firms.
This has included face-to-face interviews with leading investors,
and is illustrated by two chapters of case studies. Their aim is to
advance the understanding of methods of risk assessment and to
illuminate current policy concerns about stimulating innovative
output and securing intellectual property. This book is unique in
being academic in intent and purpose, yet strongly grounded in
practice, without becoming merely a practitioner volume. Reid and
Smith find a considerable consensus in the venture capital industry
on the spectrum of investments by risk, and on key commercial
factors affecting risk. This book offers a useful and
interdisciplinary approach to an increasingly popular field of
study.
