  • The State of VC – Q1 2020

    Posted by Aram on June 30, 2020 at 11:29 am

    Pitchbook and the US NVCA have recently published their latest Venture Monitor report.

    It’s the first such report posted after the start of the global COVID-19 pandemic. However, its impact is fully visible because most deals were already underway when the health crisis started.

    We will post an update when the Q2 2020 report is out.

    📥 You can download the full report by clicking on the link below.

    In the meantime, here are noticeable trends in this analysis:

    – There is a lot of dry powder, i.e., money that needs to be invested, in Venture Capital (over $100 billion)

    – Cash deployed mostly went to portfolio companies, and new deals tended to favor startups with resilient or counter-cyclical business models

    – Valuations are bound to move down in coming months

    – The IPO market has vanished, and M&A deals may follow suit before they rebound to take advantage of market opportunities

    Speaking Head What are the major trends you are observing at the moment?
