VENTURE CAPITAL INVESTMENT PICKS UP, BUT STILL DO WN FROM LAST YEAR
H EAL T H C AR E I N T H E U NIT E D ST AT E S L E AD S IN S E CT O R IN V E ST M E NT S
In a report last week, VentureSource (a research unit of VentureW ire Publisher Dow Jones & Co.), states that venture
capital investment in the United States has picked up from its first quarter low, led by a strong rebound from the
health sector. It reported that 1,078 U.S venture-backed companies raised $9.28 billion in the first half of 2009. This
was 44% less than $16.47 billion raised by 1,459 companies in the first half of 2008. In the second quarter, 595
companies raised $5.27 billion compared with 483 companies raising $4 billion in the first quarter. The report goes on
to state that, for the second quarter, health care as a sector attracted $2.23 billion and surpassed the $1.89 billion
raised by the traditionally largest sector – information technology. Software as a sector (within IT) raised $1.41 billion
in the first half of 2009 ($696 million in Q2 and $715 in Q1) and was 41% below last year’s total. Biopharmaceuticals,
medical devices, health care services, and medical software and information services attracted the most investment
in healthcare.
Online Media companies lead financing: Two online media companies, Pandora (Internet Radio) and QuickPlay
(Mobile Video), have secured the largest financing transactions thus far in July ($35 million and $12 million,
respectively). Total capital raised so far in July is $114.2 million through 17 transactions, averaging $6.3 million per
transaction. June closed with $180 million in financing on 36 transactions. The averages for the months of May
(excluding the Facebook transaction) and June were $6.6 million and $4.9 million, respectively.
