In Q1 2025, AI startups secured an impressive 73 billion USD in funding, with 57.9% of global VC funds channeled into AI and machine learning. This marks a substantial increase from 28% in the previous year.
North America led the charge, providing 70% of the total venture capital for AI. The 40 billion USD funding for OpenAI played a pivotal role in this surge.
While AI flourished, the crypto sector raised only 4.8 billion USD, mainly from the Abu Dhabi firm MGX’s investment in Binance. This represents a notable recovery from previous quarters.
