    Can you tell me in short the differences between Venture capitalist, Business angels and Private equity firms?
    A bit confused about it

    Venture capitalists and business angels are effectively the same except that venture capitalists tend to be firms rather than individuals whereas business angels are individuals.

    Private equity firms may supply venture capital (and so are then venture capitalists) but may also provide finance for management buy outs and that sort of thing.
