Great talk with @Tom Mackenzie this morning on Bloomberg TV discussing Founders Forum Group’s Big Tech Report out today. This is the first time the Big Tech giants have been reviewed from a founder perspective and ranked alongside one another, and our findings revealed Big Tech’s investment in startups has skyrocketed. Fantastic to see as the collaboration between Big Tech and startups is key to furthering innovation and growing Europe's tech ecosystem. Big Tech's involvement in VC rounds supporting European startups reached $3.1 billion in H1 2024 – a remarkable five-fold increase year-over-year. Nonetheless, we see this funding going to just 5% of startups, and 99% of the founders we surveyed want to see more support from the big six – not just via capital, but also through knowledge-sharing, mentorship, tech tools, events, and greater collaboration. There's a massive opportunity to fuel this next era of innovation but it’s critical that Big Tech, startups, and crucially, scaleups, work side-by-side to further technology and its capabilities.
