Can’t stop, won’t stop.

That’s what early data appears to say about the global venture capital market in Q1 2022. New data released by Crunchbase News1 this morning paints the picture of a market slowing, but hardly stopped.

In comparative terms, the dataset shows that the global venture market in Q1 2022 was in fact larger in dollar terms than its year-ago comp. However, compared to the fourth quarter of 2021, it marked a decline – the first in some quarters of record-setting venture totals.
