Product Risk: The products concerned may have little or no
track record in the markets as they are largely untested and
usually have high obsolescence rates.
Entrepreneur risk: another of the disadvantages of venture
capital funding is that it is difficult to evaluate the new
management and new business application without any prior
track record
Concentration risk: Focusing on small market, which can
relate to either the product or in geographical terms, raises
exposure to sectoral downturn
Technology risk: hard to assess new technology on small set
of products
Duration risk: Generally a longer long-gestation period for
funding is needed.
Asset risk: Due to a high percentage of fixed assets with high
obsolescence, along with a high fraction of human capital,
there is a lack of collateralizable assets, which is one of the
drawbacks in venture capital funding
