2022 US Venture Capital Outlook: H1 Follow-Up

Revisiting our 2022 US VC predictions

At the start of the year, PitchBook analysts mapped their projections for the US venture capital market in 2022. Halfway through the year, trends are beginning to crystallize, and our latest analyst note updates the scorecard.

Key takeaways

  • Roughly 1,173 corporate venture capitalists have made a deal in the US, which bodes well for our prediction of more than 1,500 for the year.
     
  • The 10 most active venture ecosystems are on pace to hit our projection of more than 400 deals each.
     
  • Macroeconomic forces have undercut our forecast of a YoY increase in public listings by VC-backed companies.
