VC Funding Programs at national level. Innvierte 1 Strengths and weaknesses of the Spanish ecosystem • Good level of basic research but with problems to translate it into a product / service that reaches the market. • Few companies that carry out R & D activities, resulting in low private spending in this area. • Difficulty in the growth and internationalization of the new technology companies: – Deficiencies in the management and lack of market orientation. – Difficulties in accessing foreign markets. – Few success stories that may put Spain on the map of international investors although i Little robust ecosystem that is not able to feed themselves. No secondary market that makes good initiatives grow fast. 2 Current Public Programs to foster VC at national level. • Fond-ICO global (ICO). €1.5 billion public fund of funds for promoting VC and PE. The target is promoting private Venture Capital and Private Equity, catalyzing the creation of private funds mainly invested in by private investor and managed by professional managers. • Innvierte (CDTI – Experience of Neotec Capital Riesgo).

VC Managers need to devote too much time • Lack of important venture rounds. • Funding is always short and the company is always stressed by the necessity of a new round. • Lack of VC funds in series B, C or late stage funds. • Are there enough “investable” companies? • More success stories 7
