In the first half of
2005, venture capital investment into telecommunications
topped $963 million. Health has finally returned to
the investment community and wireless has been, by far,
the biggest beneficiary, with start-ups developing innovative
solutions across the entire wireless value chain attracting
the lion's share of this renewed flurry of financing
activity.
ARCchart's VCs
in Wireless wallchart examines the leading
venture capital firms most active in the wireless space
and details the 250 start-ups benefiting from this activity.
Start-ups are categorised into sub-sectors ranging from
UWB semiconductors, mobile infrastructure and Wi-Fi
hardware to entertainment content and handset software,
showing the wireless sectors receiving the most VC attention
and the segments that individual VCs are favouring.
The VCs
in Wireless chart is an indispensable
visual tool for investment firms and start-ups as well
as the established industry players needing to know
the areas where wireless innovation is occurring and
the start-ups best funded to succeed.
