Henny van der Pluijm in The Netherlands is trying to make Venture Capital a little more transparent with his “Venture Capital Gids”, a guide to venture capital investments. Not quite the transactional transparency needed to create a meritocracy for all participants, but a good start nonetheless.
David B. Lerner has created a map of global Venture activity. Not sure about his crowd-sourced data quality control, and thus some of that transparency may be selective and elective. Venture at your own risk.
