The authors examine whether U.S. college-level entrepreneurship education demonstrates a bias favoring venture capital (VC) financing while marginalizing trade credit financing, and the resulting impact on entrepreneurship students. A sample of U.S. business textbooks and survey data from entrepreneurship students reveals a significant bias toward VC at the expense of trade credit. Despite this overexposure to VC, students only indicate a very basic understanding of how VC works. These findings suggest that business educators are doing a poor job by favoring a complex and rare finance method such as VC over a widely used and accessible source such as trade credit.
