Download or read book Incentivising Angels written by Stephen Barkoczy and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-04-24 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines tax incentives for investors in start-up companies through a critical analysis of Australia’s early-stage investors (ESI) program, and a comparison of that program with the United Kingdom’s Seed Enterprise Investment Scheme (SEIS) upon which it is loosely modelled. It discusses the importance of innovation and the special role that venture capital plays in supporting start-ups, and explains the policy rationale for introducing the ESI program as well as dissecting its technical requirements in detail. Special attention is devoted to the program’s ‘early stage’ and ‘innovation’ requirements, which are crucial for determining whether a start-up qualifies for the tax incentives. The book is the first in-depth scholarly legal analysis of the ESI program and the first occasion it has been compared and contrasted with a foreign program. The comparative discussion of the ESI program with the SEIS program enables the authors to make suggestions for reforms to the ESI program so that it can better achieve its policy objectives. The fact that the book includes reform suggestions makes it particularly interesting for policy makers. It is also of broad relevance to legal and finance scholars and students as well as entrepreneurs, angels, venture capitalists and their advisors.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Business angels are recognized as playing a key role in financing the start-up and early stages of new ventures. However, our knowledge of how business angels operate remains limited and highly fragmented. This Handbook provides a synthesis of research on business angels. It adopts an international perspective to reflect the spread of angel investing around the world. The increasing number of government initiatives to promote angel investing is also reflected in the book with an assessment of the most common support schemes. Adopting an international focus, the expert group of contributors examine business angels themselves, the evolution of the market, the various stages of the investment process and the role of public policy in influencing angel investment. They each conclude their chapters with an agenda for future research on business angels. Students and scholars of entrepreneurship, entrepreneurial finance and related subjects will find this book to be an invaluable resource for their work. In particular, they will benefit from the research agendas that conclude each chapter. This Handbook will also be of interest to policy-makers and other practitioners looking to enhance their understanding of the design and need for such interventions.

An angel comes to a woman in a dream, shaking her and rousing her from a near-fatal diabetic coma. A pair of angels delivers wood to a family snowed in by a blizzard. Are angels for real? Of course they are. George Washington was inspired and comforted by an angel who visited him as he stood by his ragged troops during a difficult winter at Valley Forge. This angel laid out for him the promise and vision of a new nation. Charles Lindbergh saw "friendly, vaporlike shapes" who guided his voyage across the Atlantic in 1927. While praying for the safety of his son, a soldier, J. R. R. Tolkien received "a vision of divine light, which connected every human soul directly to God." And George Frideric Handel, at fifty-two, with one arm paralyzed, exclaimed on finishing the "Hallelujah Chorus," "I think I did see all Heaven open before me and the great God Himself." Along with these incredible, comforting stories, The Big Book of Angels answers specific questions: * What angels can and can't do * Why they appear when they do * What their purpose and nature is * Whether we have guardian angels * Whether it is possible to call angels in prayer or in times of need The Big Book of Angels will help you surround yourself with love in your darkest moments, encourage you when hope is dim, and reassure you that you are not alone, that God is always close and always ready, willing, and able to reach out to you through his loving helpers.
