The project "Navigating investment decisions with social connectedness: Implications for venture capital" is published at the Journal of Banking & Finance. We find that VC firms invest more in portfolio companies in socially connected regions. The project "Venture capital and methods of payment in mergers and acquisitions" is published at the Journal of Business Finance and Accounting. We document evidence that VC-backed targets prefer stock as the method of payment in mergers and acquisitions.
