While \u20ac379 million was invested in this segment in 2015, \u20ac501 million was already transacted last year. A not insignificant increase in this segment.<\/p>\n<p>The situation is different in the startup sector. Since 2011, only slight fluctuations have been observed. Here, the total amount fell from \u20ac415 million in the previous year to \u20ac384 million in 2016. While some people speak of consistency, a critical observer would probably prefer the term &quot;stagnation.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, it can be observed that the seed market continues to experience a shortage of venture capital. Since 2011, the figure has hovered around \u20ac40 million, with a slight increase from \u20ac43 million to \u20ac49 million in 2016. Business angels&#039; hopes for increased co-venture potential through VC have therefore not been realized. It is also sobering to note that, according to the BVK, venture capital fundraising is even a quarter below the previous year&#039;s figures.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Investments by German venture capital firms rose significantly to \u20ac934 million in 2016.
