    Dear Colleagues:
     
    Please find at the following links, the Q4 2007 Silicon Valley Venture Capitalists and China Venture Capitalists Confidence Index Reports. I hope you may find them a useful research and teaching reference.
     
    The Q4 Silicon Valley survey indicated a significant decrease in Bay Area VC confidence in the high growth entrepreneurial environment to its lowest reading in 4 years.  This finding was referenced in Friday's Wall Street Journal (Feb 15 p. B5) and featured in the San Jose Mercury News and SF Chronicle last week.  
     
    The China Q4 survey indicated a modest decrease in China VC confidence in the high growth entrepreneurial environment. This decrease was primarily attributed to a changing regulatory environment and inflated valuations. 
     
     
    Thanks and best,
     
    Mark Cannice
