		<description>The report you&#039;re referring to is money raised by venture capital firms. (Matt wrote about it at the time.) What Matt is describing here is investments in startups made by venture capital firms. So the first report is VC money raised, this report is VC money spent. Does that make sense?</description>

If it continues, it will mean venture-backed start-ups may have to turn frugal, shed jobs or take other moves to survive in more leaner times. Source&gt; [...]</description>
