Key examples include Venture Capital, which provides funding to high-growth startups in exchange for equity; Angel Investing, where wealthy individuals invest their personal capital in early-stage ventures; Crowdfunding, which involves raising small amounts of money from a large number of people via online platforms; and Private Equity, which involves direct investment in established companies to restructure or expand operations.
