Venture Capitalist donations in the 2014 FEC cycle

Venture Capitalist × 2014

VENTURE CAPITALIST plus cycle 2014 equals $831,993. That figure is the harvested sum of itemized individual contributions in which the occupation field matched this string and the two-year federal election cycle was 2014. Investor, venture partner, private equity, and VC are other keys if those words appear. This join does not recode the label into an NVCA directory, a Form ADV census, or a fund LP list. Other cycle amounts are not fields in this packet.

Parent hubs: Venture Capitalist donations at /occupations/venture-capitalist/ and the 2014 election cycle at /election-cycles/2014/. All occupations lists neighboring titles. All FEC ties keeps each occupation-year cell on its own path so a reader can move without mixing $831,993 into another year or another string. Do not add those parent pages into this cell.

Party, committee, and employer breakdowns for Venture Capitalist in 2014 are not fields in this packet. Do not infer a partisan split from $831,993. General partner versus principal versus scout titles is unpublished for Venture Capitalist in 2014. The occupation page and the 2014 cycle page are the next clicks for named committees.

VENTURE CAPITALIST in a midterm window

$16.8 million ($16,760,854) belongs to the exact string VENTURE CAPITALIST across harvested cycles. It is not an NVCA directory, a Form ADV census, or a fund LP list. People who wrote nearby wording — investor, venture partner, private equity, and VC — sit in other rows if the characters differ. The 2014 slice is 5.0% of that title bucket. Share of VENTURE CAPITALIST is not share of all 2014 receipts.

Amended individual contribution reports can move $831,993. A later harvest of the same occupation string can move $16,760,854. Rewrite only the sentence whose source moved. Live Venture Capitalist donations and the live 2014 election cycle pages are the tables; this prose is a packet snapshot. Itemized individual contributions are the only receipt class in this cell. Unitemized gifts below the itemization threshold, in-kind goods, and bundled contributions without this occupation string are outside $831,993.

243 venture-capitalist receipts from 126 donors

126 donors and 243 receipts — about 1.9 lines per donor. Mean per receipt about $3,424; mean per donor about $6,603. Those ratios are arithmetic on two harvested integers. They are not medians, not typical gifts, and not a claim about income. 126 donors makes this a small occupation-cycle cell. No median is published in this packet.

Repeat gifts add receipts. 243 is a line count, not 126 one-time gifts; receipts sit close to the donor count, so many people in the cell appear on a small number of lines. General partner versus principal versus scout titles is not encoded in the occupation string. Neither figure is a headcount of everyone who works in the field named by VENTURE CAPITALIST. People who left occupation blank, used a nearby spelling, or listed a more specific title are not in $831,993.

2014 cell versus the 2008 VC join and PACs

Cite $831,993 as Venture Capitalist in 2014. Cite $16,760,854 as this title’s occupation total. Do not add industry-association PAC filings to either figure. Those filings are committee reports. Mixing PAC spending with $831,993 would blend FEC tables. All occupations lists neighboring titles so a searcher can open the other string’s cycle cell rather than rescale 5.0%.

FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates by self-reported occupation and election cycle. This join does not recode VENTURE CAPITALIST into a Bureau of Labor Statistics title, a NAICS code, or a license class. If a researcher needs those crosswalks, they start from the raw string. Correlation is not causation: a midterm-year total does not prove the occupation’s motives, and it does not attach these gifts to any federal spending dataset.

How to cite venture-capitalist money in 2014

A clean footnote names occupation VENTURE CAPITALIST, election cycle 2014, $831,993 in itemized individual contributions, 243 receipts, and 126 donors on FEC.gov. Keep the itemized word. Mean dollars remain about $3,424 per line and $6,603 per donor in the cell. If the live Venture Capitalist donations overlay has refreshed, quote the overlay. Do not treat 243 as unique workers in the trade.

This URL exists because two filters meet. Venture Capitalist donations rolls every cycle into one VENTURE CAPITALIST running total. The 2014 election cycle rolls every occupation into one 2014 total. Only the Venture Capitalist × 2014 overlay applies both filters, which is why this page cites 243 receipts and $831,993. All FEC ties is the directory of other occupation-cycle cells.
