Despite a year of pandemic headwinds and economic recession in all four corners of the world, digital health across the globe captured a record-breaking $25B (all currency in USD) in venture capital funding, which excludes all M&A and IPO activities, up 34% from 2019.
The United States Digital Health ecosystem closed the year at US$17.04B in venture capital funding, up 59% from 2019. This excludes all M&A and IPO deal activities.
After a strong Q1 for funding, the global shock from Covid-19 resulted in a weak Q2 for deal volume, but there was a rebound in H2 for a strong finish to the year. The impact of the pandemic is evident in cluster segmentation, where the highest-funded digital health cluster for 2020 is Telemedicine, and it is evident in the Therapeutic Focus area segmentation, where funding for Infections Diseases grew 5x from 2019 to reach $1.12B.
