Innovation capital is the amount of capital raised by companies with revenues of less than US$500 million.<br />

US commercial leaders conducted only seven <strong>financing</strong> rounds<br />

in 2015, including four large debt deals. However, those<br />

<strong>financing</strong>s accounted for US$28.8 billion in new capital, a new<br />

record. US innovation capital (US$32.3 billion) also reached a<br />

new record in 2015, narrowly topping 2014’s record high of<br />

US$30.1 billion.<br />
