US AI startups dominate VC deals with over 50% of funding captured in 2025
A recent report by CB Insights reveals that AI-focused startups have captured more than 51 % of total global venture capital funding so far in 2025, marking the first time one sector has commanded a majority share. The data shows US-based companies account for roughly 85 % of this AI funding and 53 % of all deals, reinforcing America’s dominance in the sector.
With aggregate venture funding exceeding USD 95.6 billion in Q3, the trend underlines how investor capital is disproportionately concentrated in AI and how other sectors may face relative capital scarcity going forward.
