VCComp was formed by a group of professionals in the private equity industry frustrated by the lack of benchmark data in the industry.  The "first" survey was an informal disclosure amongst classmates just graduating business school.  Eleven years later, the survey has evolved into one of the best and most accessible sources of compensation information for the industry.

VCComp is just a way to share information with peers.  The basic results of the survey are free to participants; the fees from non-participants defray some of the operating costs of the site and help to encourage participation.

The individuals who help run VCComp have chosen to remain anonymous.  All of us are investment professionals in the venture and private equity industry.
