Abstract:
The paper justifies the necessity to improve the mechanisms of venture capital funding in Kazakhstan for sustainable and effective development of the country. The role of venture capital funding in the innovative development of the countries is investigated on the base of study of the experience of such countries as USA, Canada, Europe, India, and China. The recent research works related to the venture capital funding in different aspects are reviewed. The innovative activity and venture investments in the Republic of Kazakhstan were analyzed. The paper investigates the features of venture capital funding in Kazakhstan. The investigation results show that Kazakhstan system of venture investment is at its initial stage of development, and there are no tangible results of venture field development yet. The conducted research allowed revealing the factors limiting the development of venture investment in Kazakhstan, these are: poor systematic monitoring of funds efficiency invested by the national institutes; lack of effective strategies of venture capital funding; low innovative activity and intensity of venture appearance; uncertainty and gaps in the legislative base related to venture financing; absence of tax concessions and preferences not tied to FEZ or technological parks; absence of strong institutional venture investors; low capacity of securities market and scarcity of its instruments. The work suggests a set of measures directed on activation of venture financing. The implementation of the suggested measures assumes the increased control over the effectiveness of quasi-public structures investments and venture incomes, and creation of conditions for venture capital funding development. The research results can be a cut-off point for further investigations in the field of venture capital funding related to the innovative development of the country.

Abstract:
This study investigates the effect of exit market liquidity on venture capitalists’ (VCs’) investment behaviour. The sample consists of 4,758 investment rounds disbursed by venture capital funds in three selected common law-based OECD countries (Australia, Canada and the United Kingdom) during 1990-2005. The results indicate that investments in early-stage projects by VCs are not related to exit market liquidity conditions after controlling for exogenous factors. Empirical results, however, show that exit market liquidity is positively associated with VCs’ investments in new projects (as opposed to follow-on projects). Put differently, new firms (including start-ups) are more likely to obtain venture capital funding during times of liquid exit market conditions. Arguably, these findings highlight the importance of ‘timing’ of new project launch

Abstract:
Entrepreneurship contributes significantly to economic growth and female entrepreneurs are strongly involved because their economic contribution is steadily increasing. However, research also reveals that female entrepreneurs face more financial barriers when compared to their male counterparts. Therefore, it is of prime importance to understand better female entrepreneurs’ behavior regarding financing. The purpose of this research was to explore gender differences related to financing with an intention to uncover why such differences exist. An empirical study involving a sample of 946 entrepreneurs from Canada and the United States was conducted to examine the issue. Results revealed that female entrepreneurs start their ventures with less capital than males, have a lesser tendency than males to obtain a bank loan and have a perception of being more in debt than their male counterparts are. Moreover, both variables depicting the smaller size of female-owned ventures and the intrinsic motivations expressed by female entrepreneurs acted as explanatory factors for the lower proportion of bank loans in the case of female-owned venture startups.

Abstract:
It is generally well understood that venture capital (VC) is an important and significant source of financing for small firms. Questions revolving around the increased likelihood of a firm backed by Venture Capitalists (VCs) to be export oriented have yet to be fully explored. Responding to this research gap, a sample of Canadian VC backed firms is used to compare the performance of Canadian VC firms in terms of facilitating internationalization among their portfolio companies. The particular reference of this study is Export Development Canada (EDC), a crown corporation mandated to promote export among Canadian firms. This research finds that EDC as a VC investor and export-oriented consultant has no association with the increased probability of exporting. Also, stage of the investment does not show any relationship with internationalization. These results run contrary to previous speculation that syndication of VCs increases the probability of internationalization among portfolio firms.

Abstract:
Undercapitalization is a major impediment for the growth and survival of Canadian life sciences firms. Proficient management teams are the 'sine qua non' criteria in the venture capital decision-making processes. The purpose of this multicase study was to explore strategies successful venture capitalists use to improve their evaluation processes of life sciences management teams' drug development capabilities. The conceptual framework for this study was based on business process management. The purposeful sample consisted of 10 venture capitalists located in the United States and Canada who had expertise evaluating life sciences management teams. The data were triangulated from semistructured interviews, annual reports, company websites, and articles. Collected data were coded to identify underlying themes. Several themes emerged from the analysis process: begin with the exit in mind, collapse learning timelines, conduct systematic due diligence, and cultivate and critique one's drug development expertise. The findings may provide venture capitalists and other investors such as angel investors with a refined framework for improving investment decisions. Life sciences management teams may also attract more private equity financing by understanding the vicissitudes of investor expectations. Increased investment and venture capital support for life sciences companies may revitalize the development of new therapies and effect social change by improving patient lives and investment outcomes.

Abstract:
Foreign investors are making larger investments in the Canadian venture capital (VC) market than Canadian investors, and Canadian VC exits are primarily M&As (Canada’s Venture Capital and Private Equity Association, various years). This research provides a joint exploration of foreign venture capitalists’ (VCs) participation in Canada and outcomes of VC exits. Using binary logistic regression and multivariate linear regression, this paper reports that the presence of foreign VCs in the Canadian market is accompanied with mixed exit-related outcomes. On the one hand, foreign VCs’ participation is associated with higher likelihood of a successful exit through initial public offering (IPO), greater capital availability, and shorter time to exit. On the other hand, the relation between foreign VCs’ participation and lower purchaser price per dollar of VC investment in exit through merger and acquisition (M&A) raises concerns about the monetary returns to Canadian investee firms and Canadian syndicate VCs. These empirical findings will help to facilitate a more comprehensive understanding of the Canadian VC market, as well as adding to the growing body of literature on cross- border VC investment.

This thesis will discuss the role of government in venture capital market and illustrate the national difference of that through a comparative study of government expenditure supporting policies of venture capital investment in the USA, Canada and China. Firstly, the prototype programs designed by Small Business Administration (SBA) of the United States and Canadian policies by the Business Development Bank of Canada (BDC) will be discussed. Secondly, the current Chinese government expenditure supporting policies will then be studied in the context of the Chinese venture capital market’s unique political, economical and legislative background. Ultimately, potential improvements in the future expenditure incentive programs in China will be explored.

Abstract:
Abstract Governmental bodies around the world are paying increasing attention to the subsidization of research and development through venture capital programs. In both the US and Canada, approximately 90% of all venture capital investments are in the technology sectors. The perceived importance of developing the knowledge-based high-tech sectors has led to a large number of government programs designated to subsidize through direct government venture capital funds and tax policies. This chapter presents evidence on how governments offer venture capital support programs in different countries with mixed performances. We further discuss evaluation tools for government venture capital and highlight several pitfalls that future studies of government venture capital should avoid and how future studies could provide more helpful and unbiased policy suggestions to the government.

Abstract:
The chapter, utilizing the tools and concepts developed in chapter 5, focuses on the trendiest (and for many people, wrongly, the only) stage of innovation—novel product and technologies innovation. It first analyzes one mode of success—the Silicon Valley model—utilizing the story of Israel and demonstrating both its allure and significant benefits, but also its considerable downsides and limitations, especially with regard to equality, equity, and long-term prosperity. The chapter then presents an alternative model for stage 1 innovation, one which is not built around massive financial exits and IPOs and utilizes different modes of innovation financing instead of the over-hyped venture capital model. The story of the ongoing transformation of Hamilton, Canada, serves to make those lessons concrete.

Abstract:
More often than not, responsible investing (RI) is associated with “patient” capital and sustainable development. Venture capital (VC), by its objectives to invest in projects with very high returns and exit quickly the market, is rightly considered as “impatient” capital, and as such, it is a less likely candidate to contribute to sustainability. This chapter advances the argument that VC can indeed contribute to sustainability, should it adopt the ESG factors into its investment criteria. This is illustrated using the case study of a Canadian VC firm, the Cycle Capital Management (CCM). The latter uses strict ESG criteria and rigorous decision-making mechanisms in the screening, evaluation, and the choice of highly lucrative and innovative projects with the aim to contribute to the Canadian economy's sustainability through its efforts to reduce the environmental footprint of its investments. Policy makers and regulators should develop policies that promote the growth and development of venture capital, should they care about sustainability and value creation.

Abstract:
As organizations based on science, dedicated biotechnology firms (DBFs) establish very narrow links with universities and public research institutions in developing their technologies. This chapter examines the influence of DBF relationships with star bioscientists on their venture-capital funding. It proposes a new definition of bioscientists anchored in today's technological practices. It also classifies Canadian bioscientists into four categories to give a national overview of their involvement with DBFs. The cross-analysis of 150 Canadian DBFs active in human-health applications and 431 bioscientists confirms the positive impact of these relationships on obtaining venture capital when a star is involved because of the credibility it brings to the firm. Moreover, results show that bioscientists most often chose to establish contractual agreements with existing firms or start their own. Future research directions and implications for policy makers are discussed.

Abstract:
L’édition en contexte francophone minoritaire au Canada pose des défis particuliers qui obligent les maisons d’édition à faire front commun pour assurer la diffusion de leurs livres au-delà des frontières de leur province d’origine. Pourtant, le milieu de l’édition, comme tout domaine commercial, fonctionne selon les lois du marché, de l’offre et de la demande et de la concurrence qui font en sorte que les éditeurs sont en compétition entre eux pour la vente de livres. Les maisons d’éditions cherchent également à se faire une réputation solide. S’engage alors une lutte pour le capital symbolique. Celle-ci est particulièrement virulente entre deux maisons d’édition franco-ontariennes dans les années 1990, soit les Éditions du Nordir fondées en 1988 et les Éditions Prise de parole, mises sur pied en 1973. Cet article analyse divers documents d’archives ou publiés afin de mieux comprendre ce qui est alors en jeu.

Abstract:
This work proposes an alternative green and selective biocatalytic route for α-monostearin production. The production process was performed by esterifying stearic acid with glycerin in an organic medium using Candida antarctica lipase (Novozym 435) at a mild temperature. The reaction conditions were optimized using the RSM: optimum conditions were a temperature of 60 °C, glycerin to stearic acid molar ratio of 8:1, and Novozym 435 amount of 6% w/w. The solvent addition remarkably improved the α-monostearin yield to nearly 80% without the need for the energy-intensive distillation step. The conventional autocatalytic esterification (AUT) process was also performed to investigate the comparative monoglyceride yield, and it was found to be 22.5%. 1NMR and GC confirmed that α-monostearin could be produced with the highest purity using the proposed enzymatic method (ENZ). Economic and environmental analyses were also conducted for the proposed ENZ process, and the results were compared with those of the AUT process. Total capital investment of α-monostearin production, considering a projected capacity of 4950 t year–1 and 11% interest for the proposed ENZ process, was favorably 2.5 times lower than that of the AUT process, suggesting a promising investment opportunity. However, the total production costs showed unfavorable negative net present value (NPV) and return on investment (ROI) for the ENZ process and favorable positive NPV and ROI for the AUT process, indicating that the proposed venture is not profitable for α-monostearin production. However, the process can be profitable at improved operational stability of Novozym 435 up to 1 kg per 3-ton product. The carbon footprint was calculated on the basis of the given capacity and conditions of 50 and 656 t CO2 eq./year for the ENZ and AUT processes, respectively. The synthesis of α-monostearin using the proposed route can be considered a building block toward a cleaner large-scale production of α-monoglycerides.
