摘要：

We aim to ascertain to what extent the better performance of European venture capital (VC)-backed firms in high-tech industries is due to either 'screening' or 'value added' provided by VC investors. We compare portfolio firms' productivity growth before and after the first VC round, using a matched control group as benchmark. We show that productivity growth is not significantly different between VC and non-VC-backed firms before the first round of VC financing, whereas significant differences are found in the first years after the investment event. We also find that the value-adding services provided by VC investors 'imprint' the portfolio firm. (C) 2012 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
