Investment deals considered here are those of 100,000 U.S. dollars and above.
Deals comprise equity and debt and exclude grants and exits. They also include those that are publicly disclosed and those shared confidentially by selected investors.
The source notes that data refers to individual investors as listed in the 100,000 U.S. dollar deal announcement and does not mean that these investors contributed that amount themselves. It adds that all figures should be taken as minimum values, as only key investors are often considered.
