Chapter 7 in Financing Life Science Innovation, 2015, pp 207-228 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract This final chapter of the book will examine some of the implications of the financialization of the economy, the risks and the uncertainty involved in life science venturing, and the corporate governance practices in life science ventures. Based on a combination of the review of the financialization, venture capital, and corporate governance literatures and the empirical material generated in a Swedish life science venturing setting, the chapter will address some of the concerns pertaining to the role of both private and state-controlled venture capital investors and the national and regional innovation system.
