Great insight here bro Michael Lints! The strategic approach to health tech, which emphasizes collaboration between governments, institutions, and startups, offers a valuable model for fintech and regulatory sectors. By fostering partnerships, streamlining regulations, and promoting cross-border knowledge-sharing, the region is accelerating the adoption of transformative technologies. Applying this approach to fintech could enhance innovation in areas like digital payments and blockchain, positioning the GCC as a global leader in both health tech and financial technology while ensuring sustainable, long-term growth.

As we move into the new quarter, it's worth taking a look back at the state of venture capital in European markets. Did you know that Europe has birthed around 350 unicorns to date, but currently has around 4,000 startups that show unicorn potential? According to the report "we could see on the order of 10,000-12,000 new tech startups out of Europe annually, in the largest markets of the UK, France, Germany, the Netherlands, and Sweden." Tom Wehmeier of Atomico provides context around the state of European startups for the next decade. In the first three quarters of last year, 65,676 net new tech workers (for non-tech sectors) and 160,039 workers from inside the tech industry joined a climate or sustainability-focused company in Europe, 48% and 178% respectively.
