The period recorded 801 deals versus 800 in the prior window, essentially unchanged, yet total capital rose from €18.52B to €23.08B — a €4.56B increase on near-identical deal count. This implies average capital per deal moved from roughly €23.2M to €28.8M, driven by a cluster of mega-rounds rather than broader deal expansion.
