If you look at the blue line below in what we are calling “private-market IPOs” you’ll see the discernible trend that began in 2014 and has continued through 2018 and you’ll see the impact this has potentially had on public IPOs in green. Follow the money.
The blue line shows the percentage of companies raising an A after a seed; the orange line shows the percent of post-Series A companies raising a B; the green line shows the percent of post-Seed companies who have run the gauntlet successfully to raise a Series B.
