As covered in our recently published EU tech funding report for Q2 2016, investment activity in Europe, Israel and Turkey took a minor hit in the second quarter of 2016, with a slight drop in both funding deals and total investment volume compared to the previous quarter. However, at €4.1 billion, Q2 2016 was still higher than any quarter in 2015.
When it comes to exit activity, the situation was quite similar in Q2: 165 European and Israeli technology companies exited, combining for €22 billion in exit value. 45% of those companies were VC-backed, totalling for €2.4 billion.
All figures represent a considerable decrease compared to the previous quarter. But, as you'll be able to find out when you grab a copy of our in-depth and comprehensive Q2 2016 exits report, there's a lot more to consider when analysing exit activity in Q2, and also a handful of facts that make it a relevant and impactful quarter in and of itself.
