WSJ: More Funds for Startups, but Still Hard to Get

In an article yesterday, the Wall Street Journal reported that funding for startups is more plentiful than it was a year ago, but still is hard to come by (Start-Ups Chase Cash as Funds Trickle Back).

Among the phenomena discussed:

  • Angel investment groups that want to see profitability before they invest
  • Reduced availability of funds from home-equity and retirement-account loans because of lower? asset values
  • Dedication of additional money to protect existing investments rather than to start new investments
  • Availability of venture capital only if a company has a product or customers
