Corporate venture capital has been going global, with private companies in the UK and China see more funding than ever from deals involving corporate venture arms in 2015.
Breaking out the most active CVC investors in these markets, as well as India, we see that Qualcomm Ventures has been active in sourcing international investments, ranking among the top 4 investors in each of these countries. Intel Capital took the top spot in both China and India, while Bertelsmann’s various investment arms also made appearances (tying for third with Cisco Investments in India).
