Money, Money: You (Don't) Need It

links:none on file
slides:none on file

Venture funding peaks through 2021–early 2022 unwind into a more cautious 2023: series A checks drop to ~€5M from €10–20M, investors demand revenue and 18–24 month runway, and many new funds can’t close in the past nine months as LPs chase safer returns. Capital shifts from global to local, secondaries enable earlier exits, crowdfunding acts more as PR than deep capital, and clear areas seeing fresh allocation are defense and healthcare/biotech, while 10‑year U.S. government bonds yielding ~6% become a competing option.
