Global VC Market Hits Record Concentration in Q4 2018
2018 is a record year for global venture capital as supergiant rounds dominate the market.
2018 is a record year for global venture capital as Q4 2018 sees the highest-ever concentration of supergiant venture rounds. These massive $100 million-plus deals dominate headlines and bend the fundraising curve across the industry.
The most amount of money is invested in the highest number of private tech financing events on record. Capital increasingly flows to these massive late-stage investments rather than early-stage startups, shifting the traditional balance of the ecosystem.
The year brings the largest VC deals in history and the rise of elephantine funds that shake the market with every deal. Crunchbase data tracks this unprecedented growth through projections of global VC ecosystem investment across all stages.
