==Resources on this Wiki==
The main source of venture capital that we will use is Thomson Reuter's SDC Platinum platform. This contains [[VentureXpert]]. Some old [[Data Dictionaries]] are available for those interested in variable lists. There is a perl script based tool to reprocess the SDC data called [[Normalizer.pl]]. The latest version of this script needs locating, updating and documenting (the one on the wiki is obsolete).

In alphabetic order:
The Center for Venture Research is a multidisciplinary research unit of the Peter T. Paul College of Business and Economics at the University of New Hampshire. The Center, founded in 1984, studies early stage equity financing for high growth ventures[https://paulcollege.unh.edu/cvr]. It is run by Jeffrey Sohl, and is noteworthy for its publication of statistics on Angel investment[http://www.unh.edu/news/releases/2015/05/em14cvr.cfm].
===Other Sources of Data===
Scott Stern and Jorge Guzman (''Where Is Silicon Valley'' (2014)) have collected data on business registration for California, New York, Texas, Massachusetts, Florida, and Washington. Data from California was collected via the Secretary of State. This data set was combined with data from SDC Platinum and the U.S. Patent Office.
