IT분야의 벤처기업 창업 활성화의 일환으로 정보통신부는 '98년도부터 투자 사업을 통해 IT전문투자조합에 출자해 오고 있다. 이글에서는 정보통신부가 출자한 IT전문투자조합의 운영 현황을 구체적으로 살펴보고, 최근까지 IT전문투자 조합을 통해 이루어진 투자 내역을 토대로 지난 4년간 국내 벤처캐피탈의 IT부문 벤처 투자 동향을 분석해 보았다. 이번글은 아직 벤처캐피탈 투자에 대한 정보가 부족한 상황에서 IT부분을 중심으로 과거 국내 밴처 캐피탈의 투자에 대한 분석을 수행했다는 점에서 의의를 지닌다 이글을 통해 향후 IT전문 투자조합 및 국내 벤처캐피탈의 투자조합 운영에 있어 개선점을 제시해 국내 벤처캐피탈의 선진화에 기여하고자 한다.

중소ㆍ벤처기업들은 지난해를 보내며 많은 어려움을 겪었다. 담보나 신용 부족으로 은행 등의 간접금융 활용이 어려웠고 이에 더해 벤처캐피탈 등을 통한 직접금융 시장마저 여의치 않았기에 어느해 보다 어려운 한해였을 것이다. 그러나“비가 온 뒤에 땅이 굳어진다”고 했듯이 지난 한해를 슬기롭게 잘 지내온 벤처기업들에게 2004년 직접금융시장을 통한 재원조달이 다소 나아질 것으로 전망된다. 국내 직접금융시장의 주요 투자기관인 벤처캐피탈의 재원조달 현황 파악을 통해 중소 벤처기업의 자금조달시장을 예측해보고자 한다. 우선 벤처캐피탈 재원조달의 주요수단인 투자조합(Fund)결성 현황을 살펴보고, 투자조합의 운영 특성상 조합결성 후부터 3~5년간 투자가 이루어지는 것을 감안하여 2004년의 투자전망을 살펴보도록 한다.

벤처캐피탈은 유망한 기술력과 우수인력을 갖춘 창업초기단계부터 성장단계의 유망 중소벤처기업에 필요한 자본을 투자하고 경영 및 기술 등을 지원하여 성장 이후 다양한 수단을 통해 투자금을 회수하여 이익을 실현하는 벤처생태계의 핵심주체로서의 역할을 하고 있다. 벤처캐피탈의 업무는 다양한 출자자(LP)를 모집하여 벤처투자조합(펀드)를 결성을 통해 성장성이 있는 중소벤처기업에 투자하고 기업의 성장함에 따라 투자금을 회수하여 출자자들에게 배분과 재투자를 하는 것이다. 벤처투자에 있어 가장 중요한 역할을 담당하고 있는 벤처캐피탈리스트의 업무는 기업발굴, 기업분석 및 평가, 투자심사, 사후관리, 투자회수 등이며 임원급 이상의 경우 펀드레이징(펀드결성)이 중요한 업무이며 투자와 회수 및 펀드결성 등의 업무성과로 연봉, 성과급, 승진 등 보상이 이루어지고 있다. 최근 급격히 성장하는 벤처투자시장에 비해 투자인력은 부족하며 이에 투자성과 제고를 위해 인력양성과 장기근속을 위한 인프라와 시스템을 갖추기 위해 벤처캐피탈은 많은 노력을 하고 있으나 다른 산업에 비해 벤처캐피탈 산업의 연구자체가 부족할 뿐만 아니라 주로 투자수익률 등 계량적인 관점에서 연구가 이루어졌다. 이에 본 연구는 벤처캐피탈리스트가 소속된 벤처캐피탈의 조직특성 중 권한위임, 직무적합성, 조직신뢰 등이 성과급 등 업무성과에 영향을 미치는 요인을 연구하고 벤처캐피탈의 유형에 따른 조절효과를 중심으로 실증적인 분석하고자 한다.

The Korean venture industry showed a rapid growth due to various government incentive measures, development in information technology, and explosive growth of the KOSDAQ market. Recently, however, the Korean venture industry has revealed numerous side effects, which seemed to be coming from excessively aggressive government involvement in the industry, and fallen into a deep depression. This phenomenon may imply that the Korean venture industry has been established by the government policy rather than based on the venture capital market, whereas the venture industry in advanced nations has grown up autogenously based on it. This paper analyzes the Korean venture capital market and suggests policy recommendations to revitalize the domestic venture capital market. They include facilitating the supply of funds through limited partnerships and overseas venture capital, extending the direct equity investment, and actively promoting the KOSDAQ market.

Venture capital invests the necessary capital and supports management and technology in promising small and medium-sized venture companies in the early stages of start-up with promising technology and excellent manpower. It plays a role as a key player in the venture ecosystem that realizes profits by collecting the investment through various means after growth. Venture capital's job is to recruit various investors(LPs) to invest in small and medium-sized venture companies with growth potential through the formation of venture investment funds, and to collect investment as companies grow, distribute and reinvest. The main tasks of venture capitalists, which play the most important role in venture investment, are finding promising companies, corporate analysis and evaluation, investment screening, follow-up management, and investment recovery. Venture capital's success indicators are fund formation and return on investment, and venture capitalists are rewarded with annual salary, performance-based incentive, and promotion with work performance such as investment, exit, and fund formation. Compared to the recent rapidly growing venture investment market, investment manpower is insufficient, and venture capital is making great efforts to foster manpower and establish infrastructure and systems for long-term service, but research has been conducted mainly from a quantitative perspective. Accordingly, this study aims to empirically analyzed the impact of investment experience, delegation of authority, job fit, and peer relationships on fund formation and return on investment according to the characteristics of the venture capital industry. The results of these empirical studies suggested that future venture capital needs a job environment and manpower operation strategy so that venture capitalists with high job fit and investment experience can work for a long time.

This paper examines whether angel investors affect startup's financial performance (profitability and growth ratios) in the Korean startup market over 10 years period from 2009 to 2018. In particular, we consider not only the behavior of angel investor such as the investment amount or the type of investments (stocks, bonds) but also the type of angle investor (individual or corporation). Our empirical results are as follows. First, we find that the startup's profitability ratios are higher after the investment of angel investors. However, the growth ratios show different results in assets and sales. Second, we identify that the investment amount of angel investors negatively affects on the startup's growth ratios. Lastly, we find that equity investment such as common stock or preferred stock and the individual angel investors such as personal investment association or professional angels show higher financial performance than bond investment or corporate angel investors. Overall, our findings imply that angel investors positively affect startup's financial performance. In particular, we infer that the superior financial performance is largely attributed to monitor startups by participating as shareholders or to select more carefully by the individual angel investors who may be exposed to more investment risk. In conclusion, our findings support that angel investors play a positive role in the Korean venture investment market.
