I assume it's easy for a journalist to cherry-pick the best performers in retrospect?

This table is extracted from that article. Past performance more useful?

Re: Torygraph article on VCTs
Interesting. My first 5 year anniversary is coming up later this year - I'll be able to sell Unicorn and Albion - originally wanted to keep for the ongoing divi's however there is too much money flooding VCTs chasing too few genuinely good opportunities.
Part of me wishes Albion in particular would just leave things as they are - especially AAVC - let the divi's roll in from renewables and schools!

Re: Torygraph article on VCTs
I’d be curious to know what informs the oft repeated phrase 'too few good opportunities'
Listening to the VCs of e.g. Beringea or Octopus Ventures (or even Albion, more recently) gives the opposite impression – plenty of strong deal flow and they have to pass on (or syndicate out) more than they would like.
The UK entrepreneurial scene seems to be getting into the swing of a second wave, where founders/execs who have had successful exits are coming back for subsequent outings with larger networks and more know-how under their belts. This bodes well for VCTs don't you think?
