**2016**

- [2808132-037](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/2808132-037) [condition/asserted] *(failure mode)* -- Venture capital deal flow, meaning the totality of potential deals and business plans screened by venture capitalists, would provide the optimal assessment of innovation trends, but that data is not available, so realized investment allocations must be used as a second-best proxy.
