What is CIV-TAU?

Welcome to the initial website for the Coller Institute of Venture. Founded in 2013, the Institute is housed within Tel Aviv University (TAU) and will have its official launch in January 2014. In the meantime like all ventures we are in our beta stage and keen to collaborate and so encourage all comments as we embark on our journey to become the global forum for venture capitalism.
Vision is not enough; it must be combined with venture. It is not enough to stare up the steps; we must step up the stairs. Vaclav Havel

VC explains the advantages of New York City over San Francisco

解析风投所在地 纽约势压旧金山

New York City by Danielle Buma
GGV Capital venture capital associate Andy Manoske talks about the advantages of New York City over San Francisco in term of venture capital.

However, he said he wouldn't go that far:
I think there isn't an absolute "better" or "worse" for VCs when it comes to geography. San Francisco and Silicon Valley certainly have many regional benefits due to the sheer size of their entrepreneurial community. But many other areas of the country - NYC being one of them - benefit from having unique characteristics conducive to building certain kinds of businesses there.

Geography is only one of the factors for VC firms, there are many more elements need to take into account.
