The appeal of the internet to bring down transaction costs has finally reached the VC market. I had written something about M&A exchanges some time back, which all suffer from very small liquidity.

Now I got a promotional mail through BAND from "EuroVence -- The European Marketplace for Risk Capital" which tries to eliminate transaction costs in finding capital/ leads for investors. The site, which is build up by swoxx.com seems to be pretty new and not exactly heavily used by investors. The time for these kind of exchanges is probably not there yet, but providing a professional exchange for high quality investment leads could create much value.
