What does KPMG Venture Pulse Q3 2026 cover?

It analyzes global venture capital in Q3 2026: investment, deal counts, median deal sizes and valuations, sector mix, corporate VC, unicorn rounds, exits and fundraising, with sections for the Global market, US, Americas, Europe, Asia and Africa plus country pages such as Canada, Mexico, Brazil, UK, Germany, France, Israel, India, China, Australia and Japan.

What are the key findings of the Q3 2026 Venture Pulse?

Global VC fell back to $170.9B across 8,341 deals after record quarters of $317.0B (Q1) and $238.9B (Q2) driven by OpenAI's $122B and Anthropic's $65B rounds. There were 35 rounds of $1B+ globally, a record 23 of them in the US ($98.4B total). Europe reached a 16-quarter high of $28.4B and Asia raised $39.8B. 2026 global fundraising reached $157.9B, led by the US at $108.5B.

Who publishes Venture Pulse and how often?

KPMG Private Enterprise publishes Venture Pulse every quarter, using venture data from PitchBook. This Q3 2026 edition was released on October 14, 2026, with data as of September 30, 2026.

How is the slide structure useful as a consulting-deck example?

The deck opens with a welcome letter and a contents page, then runs the same module for each region: a big-number divider, a two-page narrative with a 'Trends to watch' callout, and a fixed sequence of charts (quarterly financing, median deal size, valuations, deal share, sector mix, corporate VC, exits, fundraising), ending with a top-10 deal map. Every chart slide uses an action title such as 'Late-stage valuations push past 2021 highs' that states the takeaway.

Which companies raised the largest rounds in Q3 2026?

Databricks ($5B), Crusoe ($3.9B), Moonshot AI ($3.5B), Mistral AI ($3.5B), The Boring Company ($3.2B), Kling AI ($3B), Cognition, Thrive Holdings and Firmus Technologies ($2B each), and Helsing ($1.8B).

How can I make a similar data-heavy report deck?

Start from your outline or source document and keep one finding per slide, written as the slide title. 2Slides can turn a document, report or outline into a slide deck, which you can then adapt to a repeating region or segment structure like this one.

Where can I find the original KPMG report?
