N2  - Venture  Capital  (VC)  is  increasingly  developing  in  Asia.  However,  Thailand{u2019}s  VC  industry does not seem to undergo the same development as other Asian emerging countries. This  research  assesses  the  level  of  development  of  the  Thai  Venture  Capital  industry  by  comparing it first to the United States model, and then to other Asian economies. The research then  attempts  to  define  some  constraints  to  the  development  of  the  industry  by  studying  the  development  policies  implemented  by  the  government,  and  the  actions  taken  by  the  Thai  Venture  Capital  Association.  Through  two  case-studies  and  three  interviews,  the  research  finally  defines  some  specificities  of  the  Thai  Venture  Capital  Industry,  and  shows  how  Thai  funds  have  developed  some  practices  that  give  them  a  competitive  advantage  over  the  traditional  funds  in  the  Thai  context.The  research  concludes  on  the  distinct  structure  of  the  Thai VC industry and the opportunity cost of its underdevelopment
