The introduction of the Venture Capital Trust Fund in 2004 was hailed as timely intervention to provide risk and equity capital to promote the sector. A decade after its introduction, the researcher is encouraged to assess the awareness of Venture Capital Financing within the SME’s sector in the Kumasi Metropolis as the fund seeks to fulfil its mandate. To achieve the objective, the researcher administered 50 questionnaires to SME’s that meets the basic requirement to attract Venture Capital Financing.
