As Europe’s venture capital landscape evolves, gaining insight into fund performance has been more crucial than ever for predicting where the market is heading. Watch this recording for an exclusive data-driven session into Carta’s latest VC Fund Performance data through a European perspective.
You’ll discover key insights, including:
- Capital deployment: Funds from the 2022 vintage have deployed just 43% of their committed capital at the 24-month mark—well below previous vintages, which ranged from 47% to 60%.
- Graduation rates: Only 15.4% of companies that raised a seed round in Q1 2022 progressed to Series A within two years, compared to 30.6% for Q1 2018 seed startups.
- Distributions back to LPs: Less than 10% of 2021 funds have returned any DPI after three years, raising concerns for LPs focused on returns.
