And Now, The Research *No winter for Coinbase Ventures* Despite Coinbase’s brutal 2022, its venture arm was still the #1 most active corporate VC investor <https://cbinsights.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=0c60818e26ecdbe423a10ad2f&id=930fd44649&e=c3d086e0bb> (tied with GV) in the second quarter. Coinbase Ventures and GV (Google Ventures) invested in 28 companies each in Q2’22, pulling back from their first quarter dealmaking. Overall, CVC activity fell by the largest margin in over a decade (though it remained one of the strongest quarters on record). Japan bucked that trend. Corporate venture arms in the country dominated the world stage in Q2. Of the 9 most active CVCs, 5 are now based in Japan compared to 2 in Q1’22. <https://cbinsights.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=0c60818e26ecdbe423a10ad2f&id=c786e05106&e=c3d086e0bb> A government push to encourage more startup activity in the country may continue to drive a shift in dealmaking across all investor types, including CVCs.

Startups are developing products & services across emissions tracking, carbon capture, and more. Funding to the decarbonization tech space has already crossed 2021’s total in 2022 so far. Meanwhile, Amazon, Google, and Microsoft have all incorporated decarbonization tech tools into their products & services. With market leadership still up in the air, big tech giants are vying for a piece of the decarbonization tech pie.

Inefficient operations. Changing consumer preferences. These challenges — compounded by the Covid-19 pandemic — have felled iconic retailers from Neiman Marcus to JCPenney. Since 2020, the pace of retail bankruptcies has slowed down significantly. But not all retailers are out of the woods just yet. We dig into recent retail bankruptcies and the reasons behind them in this post <https://cbinsights.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=0c60818e26ecdbe423a10ad2f&id=ee4139f0b9&e=c3d086e0bb> . <https://cbinsights.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=0c60818e26ecdbe423a10ad2f&id=8b349d369c&e=c3d086e0bb> Client-Exclusive Research *Better doctor’s visits* The clinical encounter — when patients interact with clinicians — is a crucial part of healthcare delivery. Better encounters = better outcomes. Tech solutions that support clinicians at the point of care are a key area of investment for healthcare leaders looking to augment care delivery and improve patient satisfaction.
