Biotech financing: Europe European venture capital by year Total amount raised Average deal size 15 12 9 6 3 0 Source: EY, Capital IQ and VentureSource. European biotechs raised US$2.5 billion in venture capital in 2015, a new record aided in part by participation from corporate venture capitalists and other non-traditional sources of capital, including the relative biotech newcomer Woodford Investment Management. The average deal size also reached a new high, US$12.1 million. Meanwhile, the 204 venture rounds were the continent’s highest since 2012. The year featured 11 venture rounds of at least US$50 million and four rounds topping US$100 million. Unsurprisingly, oncology-focused biotechs provided a significant funding boost, with Immunocore, Merus, ADC Therapeutics and Symphogen leading the way. The anti-infectives specialist Nabriva Therapeutics, a 2006 spin-out from Sandoz, raised Europe’s second-largest venture round, an April 2015 US$120 million Series B led by crossover investors Vivo Capital and Orbimed Advisors. Nabriva followed that mezzanine round with its NASDAQ IPO, which raised US$106 million in September 2015. 22 Beyond borders 2016 — Biotech financing
