U.S. Venture Capital Investments Hit $6.7B in Q2
Ernst & Young LLP and VentureOne are reporting today that venture capital investments hit $6.7 billion in the latest quarter, the highest quarterly investment level since 2001. The firms said in their quarterly venture capital report that that $6.73B was directed into 619 deals, a deal count increase of 3 percent over second quarter of last year. Capital investments were up 5 percent. The investments were the most venture capital invested in a single quarter since the fourth quarter of 2001. E&Y and VentureOne attributed the increase to capital infusions into health care an information technology. Energy investments were also among the most active segments, according to the study. For Southern California, E&Y and VentureOne report that there were a total of 65 venture capital deals, worth $730.47M. The deal count was roughly flat compared to Q2 of last year, which had 64 venture capital deals, with total capital investment below last year, when SoCal received $791.53M in funding. The report found that Shepherd Ventures and Enterprise Partners were the most active Southern California VC firms, followed by Mission Ventures.
