The cratering economy at the start of the pandemic led to a dropoff in funding rounds for seed-stage companies, according to deals databases PitchBook, Crunchbase, and CBInsights.
But anecdotally, early-stage investors say they can barely keep up with their deal flow.
One reason for the discrepancy is that startups are calling their seed rounds by another name, based on their size. Another is that deal pace picked up in the last part of the year, not yet reflected in the data.
So all signs point to an epic 2021 for new startups looking for funding, especially as employees of newly public companies start angel investing.
