PitchBook-NVCA Venture Monitor

The PitchBook-NVCA Venture Monitor, produced by NVCA and PitchBook, is the authoritative quarterly report on venture capital activity in the entrepreneurial ecosystem.

What’s new: Our newly released Q3 2025 PitchBook-NVCA Venture Monitor presented by PitchBook, NVCA, J.P. Morgan, Dentons, and EisnerAmper, offers an in-depth view of the US venture capital and provides analysis on the changing mechanics of the market.


Key takeaways

  • Venture market remains bifurcated, with AI driving optimism while most other sectors see continued stagnation and declining deal activity.
  • Fundraising continues to slump, with just $45.7 billion raised through Q3—on track for the lowest annual total since 2017.
  • Exit activity remains weak, leading VCs to seek alternative liquidity paths such as secondaries and continuation vehicles.

What’s next: Join us on November 12th, 2025 at 10 AM PT for the Venture Monitor webinar. And don’t forget to download the report and data pack to dive into the details.
