37、甚少。天使投資者和風險資本家都是比較常見的可合作伙伴,他們樂于和新企業(yè)共同協(xié)調(diào)和處理各種所需要的情況,以建立和發(fā)展真正有利于各方的關(guān)系。本章旨在討論創(chuàng)業(yè)企業(yè)為其創(chuàng)業(yè)項目尋求早期階段融資和天使投資提供股權(quán)投資之間各個方面的關(guān)系。特別是,我們強調(diào)天使投業(yè)務(wù)網(wǎng)絡(luò)出現(xiàn)的原因,是為了優(yōu)化尋求資金成本和形成良好資金供求關(guān)系。天使投資網(wǎng)絡(luò)已經(jīng)進入了許多歐洲國家,順便說一句,在美國的天使投資組織(或自發(fā)的投資者協(xié)會)發(fā)達得多。我們在一個歐洲天使投資網(wǎng)絡(luò)

39、業(yè)是一個包括發(fā)現(xiàn),評價和開發(fā)利用機會的活動,引進新的商品或新的服務(wù),通過協(xié)調(diào)市場、工藝、原材料,努力組織起以前不存在的方式”。其反映的主要意思,他解釋說,“創(chuàng)業(yè)企業(yè)可以解釋為通過考慮其自身進取的抓住寶貴機會之間的關(guān)系,并利用該關(guān)系了解發(fā)現(xiàn)和利用機會的過程、資源的收購、企業(yè)戰(zhàn)略和企業(yè)組織的過程”。從創(chuàng)業(yè)家的角度來看,這種起源于奧地利的經(jīng)濟學為其有興趣關(guān)注的新問題提出了一些有趣的特征,這是大多數(shù)悠久的管理理論所缺少得。同時指出,創(chuàng)業(yè)研究是因

40、沒有考慮創(chuàng)業(yè)機會或新想法的特征,是不全面的(戴維森,2003),我們找出這個經(jīng)濟學課題對于發(fā)現(xiàn)和感知機會所需要的基本原理(戴爾等人,2003)。</p><p>  各種和新的創(chuàng)業(yè)企業(yè)建立了長期合作關(guān)系的外來投資者,天使投資者們宣布在各國成立一種有效資本來啟動種子或早期股權(quán)資本。天使投資是非正式的,非機構(gòu)的投資者組成的非正式風險投資市場。通過直接找尋的手段,天使投資將其自由的財務(wù)資源投資于高潛力或新的非上市公司股

41、權(quán),其中時沒有家庭關(guān)系連接的(梅森和哈里森,1994)。像任何金融股東,天使投資者的目標是從他們實行股權(quán)分離時獲取投資收益。它已被廣泛認可,天使投資者是富有的,有作為企業(yè)家、經(jīng)理或顧問的背景,以及在絕大多數(shù)情況下,是40至65歲的男性。</p><p>  非正式風險資本市場在美國和歐洲播種新的創(chuàng)業(yè)企業(yè)中都扮演了主要角色。最新的數(shù)據(jù)顯示,在美國,天使投資每年集資約260億美元,涉及57120家企業(yè),其中有超過25

42、8,000家活躍的天使投資(對比2009年)。對于歐洲而言,目前的評估表明,基于網(wǎng)絡(luò)或獨立的基礎(chǔ)上進行投資活動的活躍天使投資總數(shù)大約為75,000人,投資額大約為每年30億歐元(埃班2008:2)。至于英國的天使投資,梅森和哈里森(2000)提供了大概的數(shù)字,他們對創(chuàng)業(yè)公司的投資是許多可見的風險投資基金的八倍。</p><p>  和資金一起,天使投資還為創(chuàng)業(yè)企業(yè)提供豐富的情報和寶貴的人脈資源,這往往能夠極大地提

43、高新企業(yè)的創(chuàng)業(yè)成功率。作為比風險投資基金更活躍的角色,天使投資更好的幫助其投資的公司,他們偶爾假設(shè)是企業(yè)的一員來幫助管理企業(yè)。除了自己的個人技能,天使投資也為創(chuàng)業(yè)企業(yè)提供他們自己和其他本地的新合資公司在商業(yè)上和金融上的人脈關(guān)系。</p><p>  值得注意的是,不像正規(guī)的風險投資,天使投資能夠靈活的運用自己的資金。天使投資只使用他們個人推導(dǎo)的財務(wù)資源去獲取相當?shù)耐顿Y回報:因為他們沒有義務(wù),也不用考慮外部條件的約

44、束去保證他們的資本投資升值,取得高回報,天使投資者只對自己負責。這種狀況發(fā)生于他們更多的傾向于投資高風險的創(chuàng)業(yè)企業(yè),因此具有高變異性和不確定性,正式的風險資本家往往會避免這種情況。因此,天使投資一般傾向于投資種子和初創(chuàng)型基金,或資助一些具有高成長潛力和高風險水平的創(chuàng)業(yè)公司(杰拉德和馬古利斯,2001;哈蒙,2000)。與此同時,出于個人觀點并由于在一個單一交易中投入有限的資金導(dǎo)致商業(yè)天使把重點放在小型或微型的投資上,這些也不是正式的風險

45、投資者的目標。根據(jù)來自歐洲和美國的證據(jù)表明,天使投資的主體部分,相當于在100,000—250,000歐元的范圍內(nèi)。因此,天使投資習慣的供應(yīng)低于該閾值的財政資源是不能盈利的風險資本家的投資,因為在評估涉及的費用固定不變的性質(zhì),監(jiān)測和提供后的投資支持創(chuàng)業(yè)支持企業(yè)(梅森和哈里森,1999;梅森和哈里森,2000)。從這個角度來看,天使投資試圖填補為小型和初創(chuàng)期企業(yè)進入金融市場承擔風險的空白。</p><p>  不同

46、與正式的風險投資,對非正式風險資本市場運作的監(jiān)管并不是全面的。既不能對其投資市場做出監(jiān)管披露,也有跟蹤其責任記錄,因為沒有監(jiān)管機構(gòu)能夠通過其市場進行監(jiān)管。如上所述,兩者所提供的資金供應(yīng)和新興商業(yè)機遇主要發(fā)生于直接找尋對應(yīng)的企業(yè)和源于個人信任交易。天使投資者們是低調(diào)的,不愿進一步表明他們對初創(chuàng)期企業(yè)投資的身份(韋特澤爾,1981;本杰明和馬古利斯,1996)。天使投資的市場缺乏正規(guī)性和透明度,影響了他們投資的地理范圍:大量來自美國和英國的

47、證據(jù)表明,多數(shù)尋求投資機會的天使投資者往往只在當?shù)剡M行投資(通常在他們基地150—200公里的范圍內(nèi))。</p><p>  表面上的分析,為什么說商業(yè)天使能夠成為一種有效的資源新股份資本創(chuàng)業(yè)行為是很重要的,盡管存在信息的不對稱性和高度不確定性問題。考慮到他們的內(nèi)在本質(zhì)的時候,商業(yè)天使似乎可以降低新企業(yè)生存信息的不對稱和不確定性。這種情況在事先評估的投資建議和后融資兩個階段發(fā)生。關(guān)于“事后”的投資評估階段,我們必

48、須記得,商業(yè)天使專業(yè)投資者特殊的技能經(jīng)常會出現(xiàn)在評估投資建議中。因此,為了減少正式的風險投資機構(gòu)的不確定性,天使投資者有更好的條件來進行有效的盡職調(diào)查,以減少信息評估風險等級。作為后融資問題,商業(yè)天使減少不確定性,因為他們經(jīng)常要參與到公司的管理中去。負責公司的管理手段發(fā)揮某種形式的直接控制擁有向被投資的企業(yè)家。其他的事情都是平等的,這有助于降低道德風險問題和降低風險。因此,專業(yè)性的天使投資者們允許他們有效地解決高度不確定性潛在的新企業(yè)家

49、精神。</p><p>  盡管它對資助新的高風險創(chuàng)業(yè)企業(yè)的具有重要性和充分性,但是非正規(guī)的資本投資市場在美國和英國都還遠遠沒有得到充分的利用。各種研究表明,這個市場具有顯著的發(fā)展?jié)摿?,因為大部分的天使投資是有資金提供給投資(科夫尼和摩爾,1998),但不能進行頻繁或過多的超出他們意愿的投資(梅森和哈里森,2002;保羅等人,2003)。其結(jié)果是,大量的資本在很大程度上仍然不能被提供。潛在的投資者,也就是說,那些

50、希望成為天使投資者,但是從來沒有進行投資的人,據(jù)估計在歐洲有85萬人,在美國有1.75億人(圣何塞等人,2005)。</p><p>  我們確定了幾個影響這些非正式的風險資本市場的效率低下的主要因素。首先,市場無效反映了市場失靈存在在早期風險資本的供應(yīng)中。資本市場效率的假設(shè)條件在買家和賣家之間的信息的完善和降低交易費用不適用于新企業(yè)家精神。實際上,信息定期流動效率低特別是在早期股市階段。我們在先前告訴他,種子投

51、資的特點是在風險資金提供者和創(chuàng)立期的企業(yè)家之間有關(guān)信息的不對稱。缺乏記錄一家新公司和充分保障增加產(chǎn)品開發(fā)信息不對稱,創(chuàng)造更高的風險認知種子,啟動和發(fā)展早期的企業(yè)。</p><p>  尤其是風險資本基金,使這些低效率又“小規(guī)模的”早期權(quán)益資本受到短缺的影響。這種“資金缺口”是資本市場低效率的主要來源,因為許多有前途的高增長創(chuàng)業(yè)企業(yè)沒有得到早期資本。在上一節(jié)中,我們發(fā)現(xiàn),天使投資試圖填補這一空白。然而,雖然他們向創(chuàng)

52、業(yè)企業(yè)提供資金,從他們的人脈資源(包括家人和朋友)提高資金供給能力,以取得創(chuàng)業(yè)資本基金的最小資金(梅森和哈里森,1994),但是天使投資并沒有充分滿足創(chuàng)業(yè)企業(yè)的資金需求。此外,市場的低效率在通過美國和歐洲的正規(guī)風險投資實踐有所改善,特別是在過去的十年里,他們往往注重后期的投資,因為他們不斷提高投資的平均規(guī)模(索爾,2003 )。鑒于天使投資沒有增加其平均投資規(guī)模,意外出現(xiàn)了新的“第二個資金缺口”,在美國的第二個缺口粗略估計將在200萬美

53、元至500萬美元之間(索爾,2003;梅森,2006)。</p><p>  由于其特點,天使投資為企業(yè)新的業(yè)務(wù)項目,管理資源,網(wǎng)絡(luò)功能和附加服務(wù)提供助力,這些通常都是被風險資本公司和私人股本投資公司忽視的。即使他們能夠意識到可行的機會,相當大的努力和金錢是新的企業(yè)家利用和妥善執(zhí)行的必要的,而不是很少,也融入了他們自己的復(fù)雜的計劃中。盡管如此,獲得非正規(guī)風險投資的支持的主要優(yōu)點是擴大了對組織新穎性和戰(zhàn)略性的各種途
