Biopharma firms continued to attract US venture capital investment in Q1 according to new analysis by PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC), which says the number of firms that received backing is encouraging.
The analysis – part of the “MoneyTree” report published by PwC and the National Venture Capital Association in April – showed that the biotechnology sector garnered $1.1bn from venture capitalists in Q1, up from $871m in the equivalent period in 2013.
