  ABSTRACT: Venture capital (VC) has become a sizable fraction of aggregate private investment in the United States and globally. This paper examines the structure of venture capital investments as well as the benefits and drawbacks of VC investments relative to other sources of corporate financing. This paper attempts to determine and find the effect of public popularity and media interest on VC investments globally. Utilizing data garnered from the OECD, Statista and Pitchbook, this paper analyzes the increase in the amount of VC investment that has occurred globally. Furthermore, Google Trends and WeChat trends data are all standardized in order to compare the popularity of VC in countries around the world. Finally, this paper investigates the growth in VC’s internationally and how this growth has related to consumer and media interest in venture capital, finding that these variables are highly correlated. This paper finds a correlation between the increasing public popularity of VC and the growth of VC internationally.
