Venture Capitalists A venture capitalist is nn individual or specialist organization that invests in new companies at a later time than angel investors - when the company has existed for a while, has gained some clients or gathered a trustworthy group of executives. This type of investor makes smaller returns than angel investors (due to the decreased risk of investing in a somewhat proven company), but still much more than the mainstream investor due to the, still high, risk of the investment.
