Monthly European Technology Venture Capital Bulletin January 2011

03.03.2011

The Go4Venture Monthly Venture Capital Bulletin is a publication commenting on the latest results from our European Technology VC Headline Transactions Index®.

Please find attached the January 2011 edition of Go4Venture’s Monthly European Technology VC Bulletin, including the latest results from our proprietary Headline Transaction Index (HTI) which tracks technology private financing deals as reported in the press.

Let’s face it, a ray of sunshine does not make for summer, but January 2011 is a good start to the year.

The total number transactions is a third higher compared to January 2010 and approximately equal in value. In keeping with some of the themes of 2010, cleantech, medtech and hardware make a strong showing in the Large HTI transactions (more than £5mn, €7.5mn or $10mn) written up this month.

From a stage standpoint, larger rounds are dominated by late stage transactions, which is to be expected.
