The Halo Report is a nationwide survey of Angel Groups' investment activity produced by the Angel Resource Institute, Silicon Valley Bank and CB Insights. The Q2 2014 Halo Report finds angel group valuations continue a three-quarter climb and round sizes increased by $1 million for healthcare companies while dropping by $1 million for Internet companies. Round sizes overall dropped nearly 40% to $600K over the prior quarter when angel groups invested alone, but rose nearly 20% to $2 million when angels co-invested with other types of investors. Texas joined California and New England as the three most active regions for angel group deals.
The Angel Resource Institute (ARI), Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) and CB Insights released the Q2 2014 Halo Report today, a national survey of angel group investment activity. The report finds median pre-money valuations continuing to climb for the third consecutive quarter reaching $3 million in Q2 2014. Round sizes dropped approximately 40 percent to $600K over the prior quarter when angel groups invested alone, but rose nearly 20 percent to $2 million when angels co-invested with other types of investors.
The 2013 Halo Report finds angel investment activity on the rise with more high-valuation deals closed in 2013 than in 2012. While median round sizes held steady at $600K per deal, they were at a three year high when angels co-invested with non-angels. The share of angel investment in Internet, healthcare and mobile startups continued to increase. Golden Seeds, Tech Coast Angels, and Houston Angel Network, which is new to the list, were the three most active angel groups in 2013. With a continued progression toward more even distribution of investments nationally, entrepreneurs throughout the country are likely to find it easier to access angel investors for critical early stage funding. The Halo Report, put together by the Angel Resource Institute, Silicon Valley Bank and CB Insights, includes aggregate analysis of investment activity by angel investors and angel investment groups, highlighting trends in round sizes, pre-money valuations, and industry investment preferences.

New England-based angel groups closed deals worth slightly more than deals in California in Q2. The sectors getting funding remain concentrated in Internet, healthcare and mobile, with 71% of completed Q2 deals and 79% of Q2 dollars in these categories.

Atlantic City, NJ may be in the headlines for their troubled casinos, however gaming is under pressure nationwide. Increased competition is driving overall sales, however these gains come primarily at the expense of existing casinos. This is particularly pronounced in the Northeast. Sales remain depressed in mature markets, even those with little new competition, like Las Vegas. The outlook is far from robust due to slow economic growth and demographics. State and local governments rely, at least in part, on tax revenues from gaming. To the extent growth is slow to nonexistent, public sector budgets will continue to be under pressure as well.

This publically accessible report and open dataset are based on Mastercard’s anonymized and aggregated transaction data. It serves as an actionable donation strategy guide that details more than five years of total monthly donations broken into nine NTEE categories.

PwC Presents: VC Investing – Major trends of the first half of 2014 and predi...Proformative, Inc.
As we predicted in our last Proformative VC update, 2014 is turning into an exciting year for venture capital, with increased investing activity and headline-grabbing exits. Please join representatives from PwC’s Emerging Company Services Group as they provide an overview of recent venture capital investment trends, interpreting findings from the PricewaterhouseCoopers/National Venture Capital Association MoneyTree™ Report, based on data from Thomson Reuters.
For the first time, SVB surveyed technology and life science entrepreneurs based in Canada. Like their counterparts in the US, UK and China, Canadian startups are optimistic about the year ahead even amid economic volatility. And while eager to hire and fundraise, they recognize the challenges they face. Most startups say Canadian government support of the innovation economy is having a positive impact. When it comes to gender parity, 60 percent of Canadian startups have at least one woman in an executive position. Looking ahead, we asked which technologies will have the most promise a decade from now: Canadian startups say AI and life science.
The outlook for the Chinese tech sector is strong, with a large number of startups saying they expect more M&A opportunities. Access to talent and raising capital remain challenging. Compared to the US and UK, a higher percentage of Chinese startups have women in senior company roles and at least one woman on
the founding team.
For the 10th year, Silicon Valley Bank is proud to present
our Startup Outlook Report. The innovation economy has
expanded greatly in the US and abroad in the past decade,
and so has Startup Outlook. In our first report, we surveyed
300 people, most of them in California. The 2019 report
includes the perspectives of nearly 1,400 technology and
healthcare founders and executives primarily in major
innovation hubs across the US, the UK, China and, for the
first time, Canada.
Trends in Healthcare Investments and Exits 2018 - Mid-Year ReportSilicon Valley Bank
In our mid-year Healthcare Investments and Exits report, we analyzed the fundraising, investment, M&A and IPO activity of private, venture-backed biopharma, medical device and diagnostic/tools companies.
The SVB State of the Markets report provides a quarterly update on the health and productivity of the global innovation economy. This quarter's report includes a special section on the booming Chinese tech industry.
Our annual report finds significant numbers of startups continue to have no women in leadership, yet a growing percentage have programs in place to change that.
In our annual Healthcare Investments and Exits report, SVB analyzed the fundraising, investment, M&A and IPO activity of private, venture-backed biopharma, medical device and diagnostic/tools companies.
Silicon Valley Bank's Startup Outlook 2018 captures perspectives from US technology and healthcare entrepreneurs on the opportunities and challenges they see ahead for startups.
US startups tell SVB they are entering 2018 with confidence:
- Nearly two of three US startups believe that 2018 will be better than last year
- The number that plan to hire is at a five-year high
- Most startups expect M&A activity to stay strong
- Venture capital remains the go-to source for future funding

Silicon Valley Bank 2017 State of the Wine Industry ReportSilicon Valley Bank
The Silicon Valley Bank 2017 State of the Wine Industry Report identifies trends and current issues facing the U.S. wine industry and offers data and observations wineries can use to develop their business strategies.
Silicon Valley Bank's wine report is based on its in-house expertise as one of the largest bankers to the West Coast wine industry for nearly 20 years, a proprietary database of more than a decade of winery financials, ongoing research, and an annual survey of 500+ West Coast wineries. Learn more at http://www.svb.com/wine-report/.
Major Forecasts for 2017:
- Wines sold between $12 and $25 will grow in demand as will high-end luxury wines with an established brand. We expect to see small price increases in these segments, with volume and price drops for bottles priced under $9.
- Premium wine sales will increase between 10 and 14 percent above 2016 levels.
- Per capita consumption faces crosscurrents with retiring wine-loyal baby boomers being replaced by less affluent millennials who are ambivalent about their alcoholic beverage of choice. If economic conditions continue to improve, however, per capita consumption should be slightly higher in 2017.
- Today, millennials are beginning to affect the lower price range of premium sales. Their presence is most visible in the $8 to $11.99 red blend category, but they gradually will shift from blends to varietal wines or imports as their incomes grow.
- Even with winery M&A facing headwinds from higher interest rates, winery acquisitions should remain quite active through 2017.
- Farm labor supply and costs are the dominant concerns in the wine business in 2017.

After this second you should be able to: Explain the main determinants of demand for any mineral product, and their relative importance; recognise and explain how demand for any product is likely to change with economic activity; recognise and explain the roles of technology and relative prices in influencing demand; be able to explain the differences between the rates of growth of demand for different products.
how to sell pi coins in South Korea profitably.DOT TECH
Yes. You can sell your pi network coins in South Korea or any other country, by finding a verified pi merchant
What is a verified pi merchant?
Since pi network is not launched yet on any exchange, the only way you can sell pi coins is by selling to a verified pi merchant, and this is because pi network is not launched yet on any exchange and no pre-sale or ico offerings Is done on pi.
Since there is no pre-sale, the only way exchanges can get pi is by buying from miners. So a pi merchant facilitates these transactions by acting as a bridge for both transactions.
How can i find a pi vendor/merchant?
Well for those who haven't traded with a pi merchant or who don't already have one. I will leave the telegram id of my personal pi merchant who i trade pi with.
