Texas companies raised $388.47M in venture capital funding in Q1 of the year, according to numbers released this evening by PricewaterhouseCoopers and the National Venture Capital Association (NVCA), based on data from Thomson Reuters. According to the latest MoneyTree report, the funding came across 41 deals in the state, and was up both in dollars and deals from Q4. In Q4, Texas companies raised $325.3M across 34 deals.
