The Magnificent 7 "invest nearly $400 billion annually into frontier tech (comparable to the GDP of Norway), of which $20–30 billion is in VC rounds (comparable to UK’s total VC investment)." 🤠💰 Good stuff here from Dealroom.co on the tech giants. Their market caps are big, and there's a good chance they'll all just keep getting bigger. That greatly impacts R&D, CVC, M&A, HR, etc. in deeptech globally. https://lnkd.in/ehExX8sa #vc #venturecapital #tech #technology #innovation #deeptech #ai #artificialintelligence #nvidia #facebook #apple #microsoft #tesla #amazon #google #startups #entrepreneurs #entrepreneurship #money #business
Fascinating stats! With such significant investment in frontier tech, the pace of innovation is accelerating. How will this impact emerging startups and their ability to compete in the tech landscape?
Yes think you’re right Michael We had the seven’s cvc reps at our gcvi summit in California in March and the best firms are increasingly sophisticated about allocating across venture, R&D and M&A as well as how they offer support to entrepreneurs and land the value back. thanks and see you in London at our www.gcvsymposium.com if we can
The sheer scale of those numbers is mind blowing and show an absolute commitment to stay on top. It also show the resources available to those 7 companies.
So, innovation pays, after all? https://www.telegraph.co.uk/business/2024/05/30/ftse-100-markets-latest-news-mortgage-costs-interest-rates/
Brilliant stuff - very informative. Serves as a high level teaser to demonstrate potential to both kinds of people - those working on innovation and those investing into it. Both growth and returns are exponential.
Thanks, Michael. Great content. Here's my take on the same companies from the point of view of investors and employees: https://mattonsandhill.substack.com/p/wobbling-but-still-outperforming?r=3bmzr0
