Success Defined
"Success is a journey, not a destination." - Ben Sweetland
Success is achieved when a stretch goal is met overcoming problems and difficulties by
conscious effort and by application of capabilities, resources and methods. It is to be
differentiated from luck, chance and doing what comes naturally without effort.
Three Guiding Principles
Success depends on both what you do and how you do it.
Being creatures of pattern and habit, we unknowingly achieve success and construct
our failures. Taken together, the three NLP guiding principles - (i) failure is not an
accident; (ii) feedback is the foundation of success; and (iii) success has a structure -
can help you change old habits of thinking and your success hit rate. Once you have
taken these three guiding principles on board, you will have at hand a valuable
source of information - an effective prescription for exactly the progress you desire.
"These three principles make it possible to turn what we used to think of as setbacks
into success, get the feedback we need in order to know what to do next, and figure
out the key factors we need to get right if we are to succeed".

Venture Financing
The nature of the ‘new’ economy has profound implications for the way the new business is financed. High-tech
start-ups go through multiple funding rounds. Equity financing conventionally follows a trajectory from friends
& family, business angels, through venture capital (VC), to an initial public offering (IPO).
Venture capital cannot finance innovation on its own. Too many VC funds remain unwilling to invest in high-
tech start-ups in the early stage, often because they lack the investment appraisal capacity to act as ‘first
investor’. To be fully effective, venture capital must form part of an unbroken investment chain. Dynamic
innovation demands an unbroken financing chain, from seed capital to stock market.
Development of networks of business angels as sources of pre-revenue seed funding and management guidance
is essential and will encourage VC funds to make more early-stage investments. Business angels are wealthy
individual investors - usually, people who have made their own money as entrepreneurs. Better equipped than
banks and most capital funds to assess the potential of very young business, they contribute not only equity but
also much needed business expertise, offering company founders hands-on support and advise. Angels bridge
the gap between the personal savings of entrepreneurs and their families and friends - often an important source
of seed capital - and the ‘second round’ financing which venture capitalists are able to offer. In US they have
helped to fuel the remarkable self-sustaining innovation and economic growth of the past decade by recycling
entrepreneurial wealth and talent locally and regionally. In Europe, Business Angel Networks (BANs), generally
funded by public money, have proved to be remarkably effective - raising awareness among potential investors,
providing and independent and confidential matching service, and training entrepreneurs to prepare and present
the information that angels will require. BANs stimulate the flow of informal risk capital to start-ups with high
growth potential.
To ensure seamless integration of financing through the life cycle of a company, good relations between the
business angel and VC communities are essential. Stock markets for high growth companies also stimulates
venture capital activity by offering an ‘exit route’ of flotation. They offer a means for venture capital funds to
realize a return on their investment in new companies.
