European biotech on course for record year with $3.9B raised in first half of 2018


European biotechnology firms engaged in drug development raised $3,904 million during the first half of the year, dwarfing the $2,302 million raised during the equivalent period last year and putting the sector on course for a new high-water mark. A strong uptick in private equity investing was a major factor in the sector's performance.
