To Do

Now that the data we need has been uploaded into the database:

1. REDUCE data to US companies and completed IPO/Acquisitions (create new table with only US companies)
   1. allipo and allacquis reduced so far
2. MATCH data with VC backed companies (Also in the database) to filter companies to only those that have been VC backed (program in software/scripts to match organizations,
3. AGGREGATE yearly numbers to diagram the following variables over time for VC backed companies
   1. Number of each (IPO, Acquisitions, VC backed...)
   2. Total Value of all of the transactions (IPO, Acquisitions, VC, Sales and Mkt...)

Note: in order to reduce we may need to reference:

E:\McNair\Projects\Winner's Curse\Data\SQL       ExampleCode.sql

• This will replace "np" values in columns like ValTransactionmil from AllAcquis with null values
