In Q3 2024, South Florida’s venture capital scene showed resilience, attracting $628.8 million, up from $395.9 million in Q2, but deal counts fell to 69, down from 81 in Q2 and 110 in Q1. Notable deals included Agrion Agrisolutions and Bluebird Kids Health, both securing $50 million. Despite the downturn, the region is on track to match or exceed 2023’s performance, with nearly $1.7 billion raised across 260 deals in the first three quarters. However, national VC activity remains sluggish, with a total of about $35 billion raised, reflecting a cautious investment environment amid ongoing challenges.
