Investors: Exclusive: Venture capital sentiment is rising again

The mood among venture capital investors in Germany is improving significantly, according to the KfW and BVK investor barometer. The business climate in the venture capital sector has risen to -16.6 points, a 19-point increase from the previous quarter. Although still in negative territory, this indicates a positive trend for the third quarter.

The improvement is attributed to increased investment willingness and large financing rounds, but exit opportunities remain challenging. BVK board spokeswoman Ulrike Hinrichs says this is a positive signal, but not yet a trend reversal.
