Venture Capital in Europe & Israel
Venture Investment Data: Second Quarter, 2016
Prepared by Gil Dibner
Skyline of Rome, home of over 900 churches
blog
The data
• The data in this report consists entirely of data I’ve gathered manually based on
publically available, free sources
• No paid data sources or API calls were harmed in the making of this dataset, every
investment was manually classified
• This allows analysis of some aspects of the data I consider important – aspects that
don’t appear in other data sources
• Seed investment is still under-reported, but I got a bit better at capturing it in the
fourth quarter. Rounds smaller than $500K are generally excluded from this
analysis
• The analysis is limited to ICT categories and excludes life sciences
• The analysis excludes Turkey and FSU countries
• I’m converting all currencies into USD using monthly average exchange rates

Quarterly pace of venture investment
• In 1Q16, Europe & Israel saw
$4.0 billion flowing into 470
venture transactions
• This set a new quarterly
record for both numbers
• These numbers, and the rest
of this deck, do not reflect
the $1B in debt raised by
Spotify in March

online fashion retailer, raised $340M
in April

Average round size
• Previously, I presented this broken
down by bracket, but I think the data
is more meaningful when taken in
aggregate.
• This average excludes seed rounds
and mega rounds, so it reflects all
rounds done in Europe & Israel
between $2M and $100M
• From February to June 2015, average
round sizes across all venture rounds
were hovering between $10M and
$12M
• The third quarter saw consistently
higher average round sizes – between
$13M and $14.5M on average
• In the fourth quarter, however, the
trend reversed itself, with average
round sizes dropping to $11M in
October, $10.5M in November, and
$9.2M in December
• 1Q16 was mixed: January saw a return
to the large average round sizes of
3Q15, but February & March saw a
return to the recent trend
• In 2Q16, round sizes started to creep
up towards the $12M level

Europe & Israel 2Q16 - VC Deal Done

  • 1. Venture Capital in Europe & Israel Venture Investment Data: Second Quarter, 2016 Prepared by Gil Dibner Skyline of Rome, home of over 900 churches blog
  • 2. The data • The data in this report consists entirely of data I’ve gathered manually based on publically available, free sources • No paid data sources or API calls were harmed in the making of this dataset, every investment was manually classified • This allows analysis of some aspects of the data I consider important – aspects that don’t appear in other data sources • Seed investment is still under-reported, but I got a bit better at capturing it in the fourth quarter. Rounds smaller than $500K are generally excluded from this analysis • The analysis is limited to ICT categories and excludes life sciences • The analysis excludes Turkey and FSU countries • I’m converting all currencies into USD using monthly average exchange rates 2@gdibner blog: yankeesabralimey Syndicate for European & Israeli Enterprise Companies
  • 3. Quarterly pace of venture investment • In 1Q16, Europe & Israel saw $4.0 billion flowing into 470 venture transactions • This set a new quarterly record for both numbers • These numbers, and the rest of this deck, do not reflect the $1B in debt raised by Spotify in March 3 @gdibner blog: yankeesabralimey Syndicate for European & Israeli Enterprise Companies 1,703 1,916 2,873 3,139 3,248 2,856 3,751 4,001 122 204 270 271 286 357 463 470 0 500 1,000 1,500 2,000 2,500 3,000 3,500 4,000 4,500 0 50 100 150 200 250 300 350 400 450 500 Qtr3 Qtr4 Qtr1 Qtr2 Qtr3 Qtr4 Qtr1 Qtr2 2014 2015 2016 Amountinvested(US$M) Numberofinvestments VC Investments in Europe & Israel Invested amount (US $M) Number of investments

  • 5. Mega-rounds skew the investment totals • This analysis breaks down VC investments into brackets by size: • Seed (less than $2M) • Early venture ($2-8M) • Venture ($8-20M) • Growth ($20-100M) • Mega ($100M+) • Four mega-rounds took place in Europe this quarter – all of them consumer-oriented businesses: • Cabify, Spanish on-demand taxi app,, raised $120M in April • Global Fashion Group, a German online fashion retailer, raised $340M in April • Farfetch, a British online fashion retailer, raised $110M in May • Gett, an Israeli on-demand taxi app, raised $300M in May • Adjusting for mega-rounds, 2Q16 was slightly below 1Q16 5 @gdibner blog: yankeesabralimey Syndicate for European & Israeli Enterprise Companies 285 354 368 507 602 609 556 716 567 559 731 686 1,154 813 1,513 1,187 1,669 1,643 0 500 1,000 1,500 2,000 2,500 3,000 3,500 4,000 4,500 Qtr1 Qtr2 Qtr3 Qtr4 Qtr1 Qtr2 2015 2016 AmountInvested(US$M) Pace of VC Investment in Europe and Israel Mega (>100) Growth (20-100) Venture (8-20) Early Venture (2-8) Seed (.5-2)

  • 10. Average round size • Previously, I presented this broken down by bracket, but I think the data is more meaningful when taken in aggregate. • This average excludes seed rounds and mega rounds, so it reflects all rounds done in Europe & Israel between $2M and $100M • From February to June 2015, average round sizes across all venture rounds were hovering between $10M and $12M • The third quarter saw consistently higher average round sizes – between $13M and $14.5M on average • In the fourth quarter, however, the trend reversed itself, with average round sizes dropping to $11M in October, $10.5M in November, and $9.2M in December • 1Q16 was mixed: January saw a return to the large average round sizes of 3Q15, but February & March saw a return to the recent trend • In 2Q16, round sizes started to creep up towards the $12M level 10 @gdibner blog: yankeesabralimey Syndicate for European & Israeli Enterprise Companies 11.1 17.6 6.8 11.7 11.3 12.7 15.8 11.2 11.9 11.1 10.1 11.4 13.9 13.2 14.6 11.1 10.5 9.2 13.4 11.1 9.9 11.1 11.611.7 4 6 8 10 12 14 16 18 20 Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Qtr3 Qtr4 Qtr1 Qtr2 Qtr3 Qtr4 Qtr1 Qtr2 2014 2015 2016 AmountInvested(US$M) Average investment size in Europe and Israel (Round sizes of 2-100M)

  • 12. Total venture investment by country, 3Q14 to 2Q16 • To get a better sense of VC volumes in various countries, this analysis excludes mega- rounds • With this filter, volumes and rankings are more consistent • Israel has shown continued growth for the past four quarters • The UK saw a distinct downturn in investment volume, but only compared to 1Q • Germany has been consistently third, followed by France and Sweden 12 @gdibner blog: yankeesabralimey Syndicate for European & Israeli Enterprise Companies 315 567 543 475 628 699 963 1,064 369 267 719 437 621 444 892 543 180 284 389 209 379 339 333 388 29 163 118 232 279 225 281 355 74 123 89 112 140 84 140 113 Qtr3 Qtr4 Qtr1 Qtr2 Qtr3 Qtr4 Qtr1 Qtr2 0 200 400 600 800 1000 1200 TotalVCinvestment(US$M) Total VC investment, 3Q14 - 2Q16 (top 5 countries, excluding mega-rounds) Israel UK Germany France Sweden

Total venture investment by country, 3Q14 to 2Q16 • To get a better sense of VC volumes in various countries, this analysis excludes mega- rounds • The “second five” countries for VC investment were Finland, Denmark, Spain, Ireland, and the Netherlands • Note that in recent quarters, investment trends across these countries have been whipsawing intensely • In 2Q16, the Netherlands and Spain saw strong increases in volume 13 @gdibner blog: yankeesabralimey Syndicate for European & Israeli Enterprise Companies Qtr3 Qtr4 Qtr1 Qtr2 Qtr3 Qtr4 Qtr1 Qtr2 2014 2015 2016 0 20 40 60 80 100 120 140 160 180 TotalVCinvestment(US$M) Total VC investment, 3Q14 - 2Q16 (countries ranked 6-10, excluding mega-rounds) Spain Netherlands Finland Ireland Denmark
  • 14. Average venture round sizes, by region • Until this quarter, the data had been generally supporting the idea that average round sizes across Europe were converging • Data from 2Q (like data from 1Q) does not support this conclusion 14 @gdibner blog: yankeesabralimey Syndicate for European & Israeli Enterprise Companies Benelux, 4.5 Benelux, 18.9 DACH, 12.5 DACH, 11.1 France, 9.2 France, 8.9 Iberia, 9.4 Iberia, 12.0 Israel, 11.5 Israel, 14.6 Nordic, 8.0 Nordic, 5.5 UK & Ireland, 11.2 UK & Ireland, 11.6 0.0 2.0 4.0 6.0 8.0 10.0 12.0 14.0 16.0 18.0 20.0 Qtr4 Qtr2 2015 2016 Averageroundsize(US$M) Average investment size in Europe and Israel(rounds of $2-100M)
