Entertainment and media industry website The Wrap has “The Funding File,” a monthly column tracking venture capital investing in media, entertainment and tech, in partnership with PitchBook.
The column will track the startups and young companies across entertainment, media, publishing, entertainment software and information services that are raising venture capital. The data are critical because these startups are more often than not a bellwether of innovation and future trends for any industry.
Where investors are placing their bets — financing, from seed to late stage — is essential to understanding fully where media and entertainment is heading.
The Wrap also intends to track investments that turn out to be duds.
The column is available for its WrapPro subscribers.
