The Venture Capital Situation

from the graphical-representation dept

There have been any number of reports and articles recently about the decline in venture capital funding over the past year or so. Business 2.0 has put together a number of charts and graphs to paint a more visual representation of the venture capital situation. While funding has certainly declined, it doesn't appear to be dead. There are still plenty of companies raising money (even many internet companies). There's also a graph at the bottom of the page showing that executive base salaries have been creeping up over the past few years, as fewer are willing to accept big options packages instead of salary.

Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.

Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.

While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.

–The Techdirt Team

    Looks like the amount of funding is still on the decline. Glad to see it is not zero.
