Key conclusions: 1. VC investment as a whole are down significantly from peak levels in 2021. 2. This decline is hitting late-stage much harder than early-stage. 3. Some VCs who were growth or late-focused have turned their eyes to Series A and earlier.

Analysis of 6+ years of data on Carta cap table shows Series A is the most common acquisition point. Pre-seed startups also see M&A activity, late-stage less so

Early-stage valuations are okay, but fewer rounds are impacting fundraising. Seed stage valuations down 9%, volume nearly half. Series B: valuations down 44%, volume down 57%. Uncertain if volume will return or if there'll be fewer rounds than 2021. (source carta)
