Deals, trends and predictions from the J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference | | J.P. Morgan's annual healthcare conference returned to San Francisco after a two-year virtual hiatus. PitchBook analysts Rebecca Springer and Aaron DeGagne recapped the event, which featured more than 550 presentations from a mix of established public companies and emerging startups. In our conference recap note, Springer and DeGagne highlight key deals and announcements and provide analysis on several big themes for healthcare investors to watch such as behavioral health, care navigation, genomics and the ongoing primary care chess game. The note also includes PitchBook's analyst predictions for 2023: behavioral health consolidation will likely heat up as point solutions fall out of favor; an acceleration of partnerships could occur between value-based care enablers and health systems; and the employer self-insured market will increasingly participate in the shift to value-based care. | | | | | | Startup radar: Europe's fintech startups to watch | | | (Alones/Shutterstock) | | | While the VC investment landscape for fintech companies in Europe is expected to remain challenging in the year ahead, there are still promising startups in the sector.

PitchBook Benchmarks for PE, VC and more | | As capital flowed into alternative assets over the last decade, the global private markets surged and fund strategies expanded in kind.

That's where PitchBook Benchmarks come in—providing a detailed snapshot on the latest data for closed-end fund returns across strategies and vintage years. The new edition is now available, updated through Q2 2022 with preliminary data for Q3.
