Venture capitalists saw the public markets awaken in the first quarter, and they’re betting the trend will continue.

A new report from New York-based venture capital research firm CB Insights counts 35 venture-backed IPOs through the end of March, more than any single quarter since the fall of 2000. Mergers and acquisitions were also strong, with 174 deals tallied in the first quarter.
