Private Placement Activity 10/2/2017 – 10/6/2017 (Transactions in Excess of $15 Million) Trends & Commentary Chris Hastings | [email protected] | 917-621-3750 Private Placement Activity 10/2/2017 – 10/6/2017 (Transactions in excess of $15 million) Trends & Commentary . Blockchain technology, a distributed and decentralized database shared among participants, allows users to collaborate and share access for items such as cryptocurrencies, supply chain management and financial exchange. This technology has been garnering traction in terms of its applications in contract management, global trade, digital currency and other well-developed industries due to its ability to track the chronology of records and assure that records cannot be modified after being created. Still, blockchains have yet to achieve widespread adoption due various barriers in place, such as regulatory bodies and cybersecurity. The volume of deals in Fintech is expected to keep pace with its strong 2016 performance based on its 2017 second and third quarter results. Investors have invested $2.55 billion to date in 2017 into U.S.-based Fintech companies, nearly matching 2016’s full year investment amount. Danny Meyer, the founder of Shake Shack, has launched a new private equity fund, Enlightened Hospitality Investments LP, which has raised $220 million to invest in companies that share his employee-centric focus, including those in the restaurant industry. NFX, a venture fund that primarily invests in Seed and Series A funding in Palo Alto and San Francisco, is seeking to raise $150 million for its debut venture fund that invests in next-generation tech companies. NFX’s managing partners have personally founded or been CEO of more than 10 VC-backed technology startups, including co-founding Trulia. Following its acquisition of Whole Foods, Amazon could be moving into the meal-kit delivery service industry after securing a new brand name in Germany. This would put Amazon in direct competition with HelloFresh in the €435 million meal-kit industry. To combat Amazon’s rapid expansion, Walmart has agreed to purchase Parcel, a same-day delivery company. This follows Walmart’s earlier deal to acquire Bonobos, an online men’s fashion retailer and its partnership with Uber to deliver groceries. Highlights .
