Med-tech companies raised $3.52 billion in 65 deals in February 2025, up from $2.76 billion across 56 transactions in January.

Biopharma companies raised $2.98 billion through 59 transactions in February 2025, down from $5.91 billion across 93 deals in January. The year is off to a slower start compared to 2023, with the $9.14 billion raised in the first two months, marking a 73% drop from $33.29 billion during the same period last year. However, this year's total is higher than the $7.66 billion raised in the first two months of 2023 and the $7.48 billion in 2022.

With more than three weeks left in the first quarter, the value of med-tech IPOs for 2025 already exceeds the funds raised from all IPOs for med-tech companies in the last two years combined. Kestra Medical Technologies Ltd. provides a clear example of how fast the market is heating up, with a final IPO that raked in more than twice as much as initially expected, while Advanced Biomed Inc. shows the appeal of the U.S. exchanges for non-U.S. companies.
