Resumo(s)
This paper studies the impact of Covid-19on the Venture Capital industry in the United States. Using a sample of 8,802 funding rounds, different univariate analyses and multiple regressions were conducted. The number of investments was not significantly affected, while companies received on average a higher round amount compared to the pre-pandemic period. This effect is mainly driven by later stage investments, leading to the conclusion that financing stages are impacted differently. Finally, the results show that during the crisis, lead Venture Capitalists tend to invest more in early stage companies operating in their core sector within first rounds.
