Abstract

the study aimed to explore and synthesize the current knowledge clusters in the venture capital exit strategies or routes. The paper adopted a robust and scientific protocol to retrieve the 436 journal articles published in the Scopus-indexed journals from 2002-2022. Then, bibliometric analysis is carried out using the VOS viewer, Science of Science (Sci2), and Gephi. Keyword co-occurrence, prestige analysis, bibliographic coupling, and citation analysis are performed to merge knowledge clusters. The results of keyword co-occurrence and co-citation analysis suggest that there exist mainly two prominent exit strategies in venture capital which are Initial public offering (IPO) and M&A. These clusters have significant relation with other parameters but limited research observed on them. The findings also indicate that, of all the tactics employed, secondary sales and strategic sale are the technique that has received the least research. Also, at the same time IPO and Merges and acquisitions are the most prevailed exit tactics of venture capitalists to retain investment.
