National Venture Capital Association YEARBOOK 2015 NATIONAL VENTURE CAPITAL ASSOCIATION INCLUDING STATISTICS FROM THE PricewaterhouseCoopers/National Venture Capital Association MoneyTree™ Report based on data from Thomson Reuters 2015 National Venture Capital Association Yearbook | 1 March 2015 Dear Reader: We are delighted to present you with the 18th edition of this publication, which docu- ments the past year and summarizes the recent history of the venture capital ecosystem in the United States. Since the very first edition, much has changed. One thing that has not changed, however, is NVCA’s commitment to bringing accurate and responsible transparency to this powerful economic force called venture capital. You will find in this publication updated and reformatted charts that track investment activity in the United States. With this edition, we report for the second time Growth Equity investing activ- ity – an asset subclass that did not exist in its present form when we printed the first edition of this publication. Going forward, expect expanded coverage of direct corporate investment and the emergence of new players and co-investors in traditional venture-led rounds. Through all this change, great entrepreneurs continue to be empowered and great companies continue to be built! The industry’s goal remains the same: to create fast-growing and sustainable companies, introduce new technologies, and improve medical care and patient well-being, while pro- viding an attractive return to those who trust the industry with their capital. As always, your feedback and suggestions are welcome. Please feel free to contact us at [email protected] or through any NVCA director or staff member. Bobby Franklin John S.

MXS—which stands for Mobile’s X% Solution—is believed to be the first YOU NEED TO BUILD YOUR BUSINESS. empirically based study that gives guidance to marketers on how they can rebalance their marketing mix to achieve a higher return on their marketing dollars. MXS bypasses the equation used by some that share of time (should) equal share of budget and instead looks at an ROI analysis of mobile based on actual market cost, and current mobile effectiveness impact, as well as U.S. smartphone penetration and phone usage data (reach and frequency). The most important takeaways are as follows: • The study concludes that the optimized level of spend on mobile advertising for U.S. marketers in 2012 should be seven percent, on average, vs. the current budget allocation of less than one percent. Adjustments should be considered based on marketing goal and industry category. • Further, the analysis indicates that over the next 4 years, mobile’s share of the media mix is calculated to increase to at least 10 percent on average based on increased adoption of smartphones alone.

  • The State of Global Venture Funding During COVID-19
    The State Of Global Venture Funding During COVID-19 The State Of Global Venture Funding During COVID-19 A Look At Global Venture Funding In 2020 While COVID-19 made its way across the globe, venture capital firms, venture capitalists and startups alike feared major venture funding slowdowns. As we enter the second half of 2020, we take a look at the Crunchbase dataset to determine how these early 2020 predictions held up, and how venture funding has fared globally since the start of the pandemic. What Does Funding Data From 2020 Tell Us? By diving into the early impact of COVID-19 on venture funding, we are able to identify which countries and regions performed better than others and dig into why that might be the case. This allows us to spot geographic regions on the rise, evaluate the fastest-growing sectors within those regions, and predict where pockets of opportunity may exist in the second half of 2020. The State Of Global Venture Funding During COVID-19 2 Key Report Insights For the purposes of this report, 1H refers to January through June. Technology growth rounds refer to private-equity rounds for venture-backed companies. • Global venture funding is down 6 percent from the first half of 2019. Excluding $15.2 billion of funding for India’s Reliance Jio, 1H-2020 is down 17 percent from 1H-2019. In 1H-2020, late-stage and technology growth rounds accounted for 66 percent of funding, up from 59 percent in 1H-2019. • Funding in North America equaled 49 percent of total global venture funding in 1H-2020, Asia received 36 percent, and Europe was the third highest with 13 percent.
