		<description>It&#039;s good to see the increase in financing activity. A lot of this comes from decisions a handful of organizations made in Q1 that now was a good time to be investing. Deals started in March, April and May got closed in July. I&#039;d expect the same to continue through August and into the fall. The other good thing is to see the average size of a Series A coming down; that&#039;s probably healthier for all concerned by keeping post-money valuations more manageable.</description>
