My colleagues Peggy Lee, Kyuho Jin and I are pleased to announce the public availability of a new venture capitalist reputation index we have created, the LPJ VC Reputation Index. This index is a multi-item, time varying measure that covers all VC firms on which data were available from1990-2000. We used five-year rolling averages to create annual measures of VC reputation for approximately 500 to 1500 VC firms, depending on the year. Details on the construction and validation of the index are available in our recently published article in Strategic Organization!:
Lee, P.M., Pollock, T.G. & Jin, K. 2011. The contingent value of venture capitalist reputation for entrepreneurial firms. Strategic Organization, 9(1): 33-69.
We are making the index scores publicly available for research purposes. You can find more information on the index and download an excel spreadsheet with the complete set of index scores for all years at http://www.timothypollock.com/vc_reputation.htm.
