NEA is one of the most well-known investors around, and the firm also takes the crown as the most active VC investor in Series A and B rounds in the US so far in 2018. Andreessen Horowitz, Accel and plenty of the other usual early-stage suspects are on the list, too.

Also included is a pair of names that have been in the news this year for backing away from the traditional VC model: Social Capital and SV Angel. The two are on the list thanks to deals completed earlier in the year.

Just how much are these prolific investors betting on Series A and Series B rounds? And at what valuation? We've used data from the PitchBook Platform to highlight a collection of the top venture capital investors in the US (excluding accelerators) and provide information about the Series A and B rounds they've joined so far this year.

Albania installs British-funded cameras along its border to stem flow of migrants, criminal gangs
Albania has installed a “sophisticated” network of cameras along its border with Kosovo, supplied by the British government in an attempt to stem the number of migrants flowing into the United Kingdom and to track criminal activity in the region, the U.K. home office said Wednesday. Albanian nationals were among the 45,000 people who arrived in the U.K. in speedboats in 2022, looking for higher-paying jobs than neighboring countries such as Greece or Italy, according to British authorities and the Albanian local media. Top British officials had called Albanians’ arrivals “an invasion,” sparking a diplomatic spat with Tirana which accused them of “singling out” Albanians for “political purposes.”
