Provocative statistics from Diana Frazier of FLAG Capital this morning in PE Hub. She says the following about venture investing in the period 2001-2009:
# of VC-backed companies started: 24,100
# of VC-backed companies with exits over $100m: 750 (3%)
# of VC firms: ~850
As she archly points out, there were fewer notable VC-backed exits in the period than there were active venture capital firms. Ouch.
