(Reuters) -U.S. venture capital funding surged to $55.6 billion in the second quarter, marking the highest quarterly total in two years, according to PitchBook data published on Wednesday.
The latest figure shows a 47% jump from the $37.8 billion U.S. startups raised in the first quarter, largely driven by significant investments in artificial intelligence companies, including $6 billion raised by Elon Musk’s xAI and $1.1 billion raised by CoreWeave.
Investors’ ongoing excitement around building and adopting AI technology, which could potentially bring significant returns, has fueled the recovery of venture capital (VC) funding.
After reaching a record high $97.5 billion in the fourth quarter of 2021, U.S. VC funding had been steadily declining. It hit a recent low of $35.4 billion in the second quarter of 2023, amid a high interest rate environment and a sluggish exit market.
The recent influx of capital into AI startups has reversed the downward trend, prompting more investors to double down on AI foundation model companies as well as applications from code generation to productivity tools.
Despite the increase in deal activity, exits remain challenging, the data shows, as small deals generated about $23.6 billion in exit value in the second quarter this year, down from $37.8 billion in the first quarter. The initial public offering market has struggled to gain momentum, even after some VC-backed companies such as cloud data management company Rubrik, went public.
“For VC returns to see an increase, large tech companies must begin to list publicly at a higher pace than we have seen through the first half of the year,” Pitchbook analyst Kyle Stanford said in a statement.
Emerging VC fund managers may have already felt the pressure of a lack of proven returns, with only $37.4 billion in commitments raised through the first half of the year. Large firms dominated the fundraising, with Andreessen Horowitz alone closing new funds with more than $7 billion.
Venture Capital Journal reports that Launchbay Capital has raised “almost half” of its $100 million target for its first venture secondaries fund.
The London-based company closed on a little over $25 million in early January, and plans to close a second time at the end this summer.
Launchbay, founded in 2018 as Digital Horizon, announced its rebranding in this year’s first close of its secondary fund. It is looking to expand its primary investment strategies into both early-stage growth-stage companies. The firm refused to reveal the names of LPs and the terms for the fund.
Alan Vaksman, Launchbay Capital
Alan Vaksman, founding partner of VCJ, said: “We always debated what the real price is.” “We liked the companies but we never liked the prices. We saw that the secondary market was less transparent, and there is more of a supply-demand dynamic than a closed-door deal between parties. We found that we could purchase the same great companies at better valuations, or at least understand the valuation better.”
Launchbay is one of a few new VC funds for secondaries that have been introduced in the last couple of years. The funds are managed both by new secondaries firms as well as existing VC firms who have expanded into secondary. According to VCJ, there are about a dozen firms actively involved in VC secondary funds. The largest players include Industry Ventures and Lexington Partners, as well as StepStone Group.
There are three main categories of VC secondaries: direct secondaries which involve direct sales by investors, founders or employees of start-ups, LP interests where a limited partnership in a venture funds sells their fund commitment to a a third party, and GP-led secondary where the general partner coordinates the sale to a new, sometimes the same firm, fund.
Launchbay will only focus on direct secondaries investments with values below $10 million. Vaksman believes that Launchbay will be able to generate liquidity faster than other secondaries investors because of the small ticket size.
“Our goal is closer to early-stage and employee investors [of target companies] than to take from GPs and large, stuck LPs,” he said. “We try to maintain our position there to preserve liquidity and, in turn, that allows us a much shorter funds. Our competitors’ funds are usually eight to twelve years old, while ours are four to five. All secondary funds return 2x to 3x, we just do it quicker.”
Vaksman stated that in some cases Launchbay would hold a position as short as one year, before exiting the deal and recycling the capital into other short-term secondary deals. The “recycling” portfolio, which makes up 30-40% of the secondaries fund, aligns with LPs desire to invest in leading-edge industries.
Vaksman stated that “our investors want to invest in the latest things.” “If you invest in something that is really good but it has been 10 years, it’s no longer the latest technology.” They want to be in data centres, GPU chips, AI, or different biotechs. This recycling of capital is what excites them, not investing and holding for the long term.
Launchbay continues to run a traditional venture capital fund while expanding into secondary markets. It closed on $45m for its debut fund to make direct investments in fintech and SaaS B2B companies across stages. It closed on $30 million of the $100 million target for Fund II. This fund will invest exclusively in early-stage fintech companies that use artificial intelligence.
According to performance data shared by VCJ, the firm has completed three exits of its Fund I. The firm generated an IRR of 24 per cent and a TVPI multiplier of 1.5x.
Launchbay also operates a data-centric platform for investing in addition to its direct funds and secondaries. The platform has two purposes: it connects Launchbay to brokers on the secondary market, creating dealflow to its recycling portfolio. It also allows Launchbay, and anyone who signs up for the platform, to compare data points about current and potential investments.
Vaksman views the platform as a key differentiator. “Retrieving data and analytics from secondary transaction provides newfound understanding, and an enhanced capability to make informed decisions,” said Vaksman. “Trackable Analytics can be pulled for specific companies or broad sectors to review recent share price, volume of trades and growth timelines as well as past, current and future funding rounds in order to better gauge true opportunities.”
Vaksman said VCJ, that his firm’s expansion in venture secondaries was a natural evolution both of its strategy and the venture market. Although it’s difficult to estimate the exact size of the VC secondary market, Vaksman estimates that it’s between $120 billion and $14 billion, with direct secondary holding a value of between $30 billion and $40 billion.
Vaksman stated that the market would realize in two to three years that VC was the most liquid asset and not the least liquid. “People think VC is a very illiquid asset. But with the development of technology and the acceptance of how VC secondary markets work, I believe this will be the market that is most liquid.”
The study found that 45% of IT professionals report only a basic understanding of Gen AI, highlighting a significant knowledge gap in the field.
Indeed, knowledge gaps are a significant issue in the cyber field. A 2023 study by international professional association focused on IT governance ISACA showed that nearly 62% of businesses face understaffing issues within their cybersecurity teams.
This lack of specialised knowledge has far-reaching implications, particularly in areas of compliance, legal issues, and ethical considerations.
The report indicates that 61% of IT professionals believe their understanding of AI’s ethical implications is either adequate, limited, or poor.
Moreover, almost half (48%) admit to having poor or limited understanding of the compliance and legal issues surrounding AI implementation, a factor crucial in a maturing regulatory environment.
Perhaps most alarmingly, only 15% of respondents expressed high confidence in their organisations’ ability to manage AI-related security issues. This is increasingly concerning as trends show adversaries are increasingly looking to AI to augment their attacks.
AI’s future in IT
Despite these challenges, the study shows that AI is making inroads in specific areas of IT service management (ITSM).
Virtual assistants for end-user support, assisted knowledge management, and assisted self-service are currently the top three AI-powered technologies used in ITSM operations.
Respondents believe that incident management (79%), knowledge management (73%), and service request management (67%) are the areas most likely to be impacted by AI.
However, the adoption of more strategic AI applications, such as intelligent data analytics for insight and decision-making, lags behind, which the report links to 62% of respondents listing integration challenges.
Yet, as the IT industry grapples with the transformative potential of AI, the report reminds that implementation and skills pose a problem to a broader rollout.
Jacksonville-based company Crowley was issued “one of the largest logistics contracts under the federal government” to continue providing transportation services for the U.S. military.
On July 2, Crowley announced that U.S. Transportation Command (USTRANSCOM) offered the company a $2.3 billion, seven-year contract to provide military transportation and logistics services.
Crowley will provide the military with less than truckload (LTL), full truckload (FTL), expedited, time definite and rail services as well as cross-docking and warehousing throughout the continental U.S., Alaska and Canada.
The new contract is an extension of previous working partnership between Crowley and the U.S. military.
“There is no greater honor than to serve the logistics needs of our nation’s military service members with the trust of the U.S. Department of Defense. The lasting partnership built with USTRANSCOM is a privilege that the people at Crowley never take lightly as we ensure an efficient and effective supply chain for the military and other agencies’ needs,” said Ray Fitzgerald, Chief Operating Officer, Crowley. “We are humbled and immensely proud to continue delivering this critical transportation service for America’s defense safely and reliably.”
“As it enters the new contract (DFTS II), Crowley will also continue to utilize small businesses and diverse suppliers that help drive investment and resiliency in communities coast to coast, exceeding $600 million in diverse small business contracting. Crowley grew its network of carriers and suppliers by over 500%, tripling the minimum capacity needed to effectively service 300,000 movements annually of critical equipment and supplies,” the company said in a news release.
Azerbaijan, Turkmenistan and Iran are intensifying the collaboration efforts to boost rail freight transportation across Eurasia. They will focus on the Trans-Caspian International Transport Route or TITR.

During his recent visit to Turkmenistan Rovshan Rustamov (Chairman of Azerbaijan Railways, ADY) engaged in detailed discussions Azat Atamuradov (Head of Turkmenistan Railway Agency), and senior representatives of the Turkmenistan Marine Agency.
Recent talks aimed at strengthening railway relations between the countries and increasing freight traffic, particularly via multimodal transport along Central Asia-Europe and China Europe routes. They recognized the potential of collaboration and the necessity to promote these opportunities on the European market.
Rustamov also met with top Turkmenistan oil and gas executives to discuss Azerbaijan’s plans to expand the Middle Corridor.
TITR, or the Middle Corridor (initiated in 2013), is seen as a pivotal point for realizing Central Asian and South Caucasus nation’s high transit potential. TITR International is made up of Azerbaijan and Bulgaria, China, Georgia. Kazakhstan, Poland, Romania and Turkiye.

The Middle Corridor is a faster and more cost-effective trade route than the Northern Corridor. It consists of approximately 4,250 km of rail and 500 km of seaway.
The Middle Corridor also offers a 15-day reduction in travel time compared to sea routes, and passes through a more favorable climate. The Middle Corridor offers huge opportunities for cargo traffic, allowing goods to reach the Middle East and North Africa as well as the Mediterranean region through Turkiye port connections.
Middle Corridor’s strategic location is expected to generate substantial economic opportunities for South Caucasian and Central Asian countries, allowing them to benefit from the $600bn China – Europe trade each year. Trans-Caspian Cooperation will be boosted by the creation and expansion of free trade zones and logistics centers at the ports of Azerbaijan and Kazakhstan. By leveraging the Middle Corridor’s advantages, countries in the area can achieve increased economic growth and trade.
Azerbaijan has invested in the Middle Corridor, upgrading its multimodal transport system, including railways. Azerbaijan Railways announced in May that the Baku-Tbilisi – Kars railway expansion project was completed. The 184-kilometer Georgian segment of this line was modernized to increase its annual throughput from 1mn tonnes to 5mn tonnes.

The first train on the upgraded BTK, which completed the journey on 25 May, left Azerbaijan after the resumption in freight operations. According to the railway administration in Turkiye, BTK has transported more than 1.5mn tons since its launch in 2017.
Turkmenistan is always looking for effective ways to export its primary commodities including oil and gas. It has, therefore, been a pro-active advocate for the Middle Corridor since its inception. Turkmen officials began exploring the idea of building a transnational highway that would stretch to China in 2023.
Ashgabat, demonstrating its commitment to Middle Corridor investment, invested $1.5bn in the 2010s for Turkmenbashi port to improve its principal intermodal hub. The expansion was aimed at Turkmenbashi facilities that could handle up to 17mn tones of cargo per year, including 400,000 shipping container.
In April, the Chairman of Turkmendenizderyayollary (Turkmen Sea and River Routes), Batyr Annaev, said the integration of the Turkmenbashi port into the Middle Corridor would contribute to the growth of the economies of Central Asian countries and strengthening their position in the world market.
He emphasized Turkmenistan’s unwavering measures to boost the activity at the Turkmenbashi Port. The efforts include implementing incentives, such as reductions of port fees and discounts on maritime transport. The port maintains regular ferry service with the Baku Sea Trade Port, and feeder transportation using dry cargo ships.
“It (Turkmenbashi Port) plays an important part in the transit system in Central Asia. It is a link on the East-West Corridor. The port’s throughput capacity is 17mn tons annually, which allows it to process all the goods demanded in the region. “Regular cargo transportation is carried on the route Turkmenbashi-ports of the Caspian States,” Annaev said.

The House Appropriations Committee released on Tuesday the Fiscal Year 2025 funding legislation for the Transportation, Housing and Urban Development, and Related Agencies Subcommittee (THUD). This bill includes provisions to block a possible mandate for speed limiters and allocate extra funding for truck parking.
The bill will be discussed by the THUD Appropriations Subcommittee on Thursday, June 27 and the full House Appropriations Committee July 8.
The truck park provision was well received by both the Owner-Operator Independent Drivers Association as well as the American Trucking Associations. OOIDA President Todd Spencer stated that truck drivers are “put in a no win situation” without a safe parking area. We are forced to either drive while fatigued, or outside of legal driving hours, or park in a non-designated and unsafe place like a side of the highway or abandoned lot.
The ATA President and Chief Executive Officer Chris Spear said that the shortage of truck parking “places a huge burden on truckers, who often do not know if they can find a place to sleep after they finish their shift.” This investment would reduce stress for truck drivers, improve freight movement, and make roads safer for all motorists.
Spencer stated that “road safety is the top priority for truck drivers in America.” OOIDA applauded a draft language that “prevents FMCSA from pursuing a harmful speed limiter mandate for large trucks.” This would lead to drastic speed differences on America’s roads, increased crash rates and put innocent lives at risk.
The FMCSA’s efforts to implement a speed limiter mandate have seemingly stalled. In February , the agency indicated that a proposed rulemaking would be published in May. A speed limiter proposal is still not even approved by the White House Office of Management and Budget, let alone published in the Federal Register for a comment period.
When Til Klein and Jochen Beutgen came across Gaingels, the U.S.-based syndicate of angel investors backing LGBTQ+ founders, they wondered why there wasn’t a firm looking to do the same for the European LGBTQ+ startup community. Five years later, when a firm like that still didn’t exist, Klein and Beutgen decided they should try to launch one themselves.
In 2023, the pair launched Identity.vc, a venture firm that invests in early-stage companies with at least one founder or executive who identifies as a member of the LGBTQ+ community. The Berlin-based firm is currently raising €50 million for its debut fund and has closed on €15 million thus far. The founding partners also brought on Mari Luukkainen, who has prior operating and investing experience, as a principal.
The firm writes checks that range from €250,000 to €1.5 million into companies from the pre-seed to Series A stages. The firm is sector agnostic and invests in Europe and beyond. Identity.vc has backed four companies thus far, including eco.mio, a software plugin that helps companies manage the environmental impact of their business travel, and Paxton, an AI legal tech company.
“The majority of LGBTQ+ founders: They are not out to their investors because they feel that could be a disadvantage,” Klein told TechCrunch. “We think that is a big mistake and [that means] you don’t have this trusted relationship with your investors. Those investors who don’t like it, you don’t want to have them on your cap table. You should be able to be yourself.”
Klein said they’ve gotten a lot of positive feedback on the strategy, and fundraising hasn’t been too difficult thus far. He added that LPs are looking for funds that give them this kind of diversification. He cited a recent Morgan Stanley survey that found that 45% of U.S. investors were looking to find a way to back LGBTQ+ founders.
It’s not surprising that investors see the value in backing diverse teams — numerous studies have shown diverse teams outperform non-diverse teams — but it’s still refreshing to see that LPs and the European startup community have embraced the firm. Identity.vc’s narrative is a bright spot at a time when some firms focused on investing in diverse founders have struggled to raise in the U.S. and others have come up under legal pressure for their thesis.
“So far it’s been very supportive from investors and other VCs. They love to work with us and our experience,” Klein said. “When I talk to regular funds, they also know they should be more diverse. They see us as an opportunity to increase their diversity. We have not yet experienced that backlash, maybe because Europe is so much more advanced when it comes to diversity investing.”
While the firm got inspiration from Gaingels, Klein said they intentionally decided to do things a little bit differently. He said they wanted to raise a traditional fund, as opposed to a syndicate, so that it would make follow-on investments easier.
The fund size was intentional, too. While some people recommended that the firm start with a smaller fund, say €20 million, Klein said they didn’t want to do that. They wanted a larger debut fund to make a statement of how serious they were about the opportunity. Klein added that they wanted to collect a high management fee, too, so that they would have enough capital to start to build the European community for LGBTQ+ founders and investors.
“In the U.S., there is a real LGBTQ+ investor community — that’s not the case in Europe,” Klein said. “We need to have resources and people who can do community work.”
The firm launched a Slack channel for the community, which currently has 300 members. The firm has also held events in Madrid, Amsterdam and Paris to create spaces where LGBTQ+ founders and investors can meet and connect with each other. He said these initiatives not only help their firm build community but can also help with deal flow for Identity.vc and help startups find other sources of capital, too.
“We will bring together the local community, and you’d be surprised how little LGBTQ+ founders and investors are connected,” Klein said. “We could create value by bringing local people together. If there is an early-stage startup that is too early for us and an angel investor, I can bring them together.”
The firm has only raised 30% of its fund target so far, but it has already started to make a difference — one that will continue to grow as the firm brings in more capital.
“There are multiple reasons why we think it’s needed,” Klein said about Identity.vc’s existence. “We believe strongly we can outperform because of the fact that diversity-driven performance and backing the LGBTQ+ community give us a unique access to startups and access to interesting deals.”
