Hi Product Hunt! Hunting the Series A investment round is an exciting and thrilling game, but also it requires quite a preparation, learning who to pitch yourself to and how to do it right. As 2019 is coming closer to the end, we’ve assembled the research for those who are going to hunt their Series A round in 2020. What's inside? We've gathered the data from Crunchbase and listed Top 25 funds associated with the biggest amount of investment into Series A rounds this year, analyzed which months are the best to catch your investment, listed down the industries which scored the most of Series A rounds in 2019.

When fundraising, pitching to the right VC is crucial. This data should help you to get to know the investment scene in the US. If you are a startup, I'd really recommend checking this out before preparing any strategy. Good job!

Hey PH fans! Series A is the first significant round of financing a startup would raise. Should I say it comes way harder than a seed? The investors are not just looking for an idea that has some potential or a decent team. You need to show the actual numbers! As we have recently started preparing to our own Series A, we did some research on other startups that successfully closed their rounds in 2019. Then the to turning our internal research into this whitepaper idea came to mind. I hope it will be useful to the founders seeking to raise their series A in 2020 - like us! ;)

Woah, that’s quite useful and informative, will be very helpful for those raising around A for understanding the potential investors. Amazing report!

My take on this report is that it is not deep enough and instead goes for the highlights, the headlines, the outliers. Series A seeking entrepreneurs can easily find the biggest funds, the biggest raises...but these are outliers! Everyone has heard of a16z, and less than 1% of entrepreneurs will raise a 9 figure series A. What about the smaller funds that are doing great things, what are their criteria and deal sizes? What is the Mean and Median of Series A activity. Which funds are most active at the Mean and Median? I thought Pear.vc did a superb job mapping out really useful information for pre-seed, seed, and series a entrepreneurs. Link here: https://www.slideshare.net/MarHe...
