Abstract
Finansowanie projektów kapitałem zasiewnym (seed capital) i projektów typu start-up z funduszy PE/VC jest zazwyczaj bardzo trudne i wskazane jest stworzenie programów rządowych lub quasi-rządowych w celu zapewnienia sprawniejszych metod i sposobów na finansowanie tego typu projektów. Ponad 20-letni rozwój rynków PE/VC wspomaganych przez wsparcie i właściwą legislację programów rządowych, takich jak Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR), doprowadził do rozwoju i finansowania wielu projektów typu start-up, seed i innych specjalnych programów inwestycyjnych, które stały się pionierami i katalizatorami rozwoju przyszłych nowoczesnych innowacji, zaawansowanych technologii i programów badawczo-rozwojowych w ośrodkach naukowych i uniwersyteckich.(abstrakt oryginalny)

This paper analyzes factors that influence the development of private equity markets at the seed and start-up stage. The authors want to show solutions of the venture capital and angel capital shames that could be potentially considered in Central & Eastern Europe and be developed to facilitate business growth and economic development giving opportunities to access capital. These examples should allow and enable small and new startup businesses to access investment funds and providing incentives for innovation and entrepreneur-ship. The study focuses on evaluating the process to seek financing for start-up or seed capital, examining the significance of such factors including the methods and solution presenting examples of business schemes that help to secure alternative and sourcing funds to raising money which reflects the structure, cost of capital and risk factor associated with that. In the following paper we would like to introduce basic concepts to financing projects with seed and start-up capital. We will discuss some business constrains and strategic decisions to be made by the PE/VC and the entrepreneurs. We will give examples how US Government sponsored project have been operating and describe their main characteristics and business constrains. Moreover, we will give guidelines to show examples of models/schemes for entrepreneurs and small and medium companies to participate in obtaining financing for start-up and seed capital in quasi--private and government sponsored initiatives.
