“Venture capital investment in U.S. startups rose 24% in the second quarter to $19.19 billion, nearly matching levels last seen in the dot-com era, according to Dow Jones VentureSource.  Total investment in the first half of 2015 was $35.9 billion, more than the $35.7 billion deployed into U.S. venture-backed companies in all of 2013.  The number of deals in the second quarter (1,034) actually declined a little compared with the same period of 2014, Dow Jones said in its latest VC report, but that reflected the super-sized investments going to substantial ‘unicorn’ companies such as Uber Technologies and Airbnb.”
