چگونه حمایت سرمایه گذاری دولتی در مقابل حمایت سرمایه گذاری خصوصی بهره وری یک شرکت را تحت تاثیر قرار می دهد؟ مدارک و شواهد از بلژیک

We investigate the implications of venture capital (VC) investor type (government or private) on the operating efficiency of a sample of 515 Belgian portfolio firms up to 3 years after the investment. We find that the government VC-backed firms display significant reductions in productivity. No significant differences in efficiency are found in firms backed by private VC compared with their non-VC-backed peers. Finally, significant reductions in efficiency exist in targets of government VC compared to their non-VC-backed peers.
