New York. Venture Capital investments in internet-specific companies amounted to $897 million (160 deals) in the second quarter, down from $1.4 billion (177 deals) in the first quarter. This is according to a new data from PricewaterhouseCoopers and the National Venture Capital Association, writes GigaOM.

As a total, however, the level of VC investment is up. Venture capitalists invested $7.1 billion in 977 deals in the second quarter of 2007, which is the highest level of deals reported in a quarter since Q3 2001. Based upon the first half of 2007 data, this year may see a new 6-year high in VC investment.
