The results are in: explosive growth in 2024 means European tech is on track for one of its best years yet and the UK has come out on top according to new Dealroom.co data. European tech's relentless pursuit of innovation means that: 💰VC investment came in at £7.4bn so far this year, up 16% from 2023 📈1,450 startups have raised at least £1.5M or more across Europe already this year 💡Late stage had one of its strongest quarters, thanks to mega rounds for fintech, energy and AI companies 🐎 As our co-COO Catherine Lenson told City AM: “As late stage funding returns to Europe and in particular to New Palo Alto, the supercluster of innovation ecosystems, we’re seeing a surge of thoroughbred companies – boasting strong revenues and incredible potential.” https://lnkd.in/d9KEqYUG

As of recently, the UK tech sector is now the third-largest destination for global VC investment; the rise of the tech startup ecosystem here has been amazing, from a few small scruffy startups huddled around the "silicon roundabout" to becoming the engine of the UK economy. However, most of the biggest issues we face in the UK, from housing to climate, are not best addressed through technology but rather through new forms of social and systems innovation. If we are serious about addressing such issues, we need to move beyond "innovation tunnel vision" and start to apply innovation into something that can be applied to create new forms of social, political, and economic systems.

🖲 🔎 🔦 #European #Tech #Investment in #2023, Part 1 By Dealroom, Pitchbook, Tech.eu and Atomico 📤 A lot has been written and reported about 2023 in European tech investment, so let’s have a look at some of the most visible sources: Dealroom.co (Dec 29th), PitchBook (released Dec 20th), Tech.eu (Dec 15th) and Atomico (Nov 28, announced at Slush). We would like to provide a short summary of the key insights and compare the trends from different reports. 📌 Dealroom.co: - European startups raised $63 billion invested across over 10K funding rounds, down 37% on 2022 (vs $45 billion projected by Atomico in Nov 23 and, to put it in global perspective, the same as 38% decline on the global level, reported by Crunchbase this week) - By country, the #UK, #France and #Germany raised the most VC investment in Europe in 2023. By city: London, Paris and Stockholm - The only EU country that avoided the fall of national level VC investment from 2022 to 2023 was Denmark with its mega biotech and healthtech rounds. European share of Global VC investment is at a record high at 19%, up 2x in 5 years. - The leading segments raising the most VC investment in 2023 include #E-mobility, #EV and #greentech startups, and in general the market is pivoting from Saas focus to physical & manufacturing tech startups which we find notable. 📌 PitchBook (VC + PE data): - VC deal value is on course to fall significantly, whereas PE deal value is displaying resilience and is marginally lower relative to 2022’s figures. The same contrasting trends apply to VC-raised capital vs PE where the world’s largest PE buyout fund was reported in 2023. - Substantial exits have been rare in 2023, VC-backed public listings have struggled to gain momentum. Important to see it as a calibration rather than a decline considering the boom of 2021-2022. - 2024 Outlook: During 2021 and 2022, UK private capital (PE and VC) deal value was greater than France and Germany’s private capital deal value combined. But in 2024 France and Germany are expected to close the gap to the UK, shifting capital deployment. We believe it’s important to put any statistics in perspective to avoid the hype of ‘the worst year in the European tech’ titles. As we can see, the European VC decline is in line with the global trend, and needs to be considered as a correction rather than a collapse keeping in mind unprecedented investment levels of 2021-2023. Stay tuned for part 2! #europeantech #2023year #investment #VC #investmenttrends

Our H1 European tech review is out now — and the tech ecosystem is arguably in a better place than it was at the start of the year with €47.3bn injected into Europe’s startups. Sifted has been tracking funding rounds since late 2023, covering equity, debt, and grants. Each deal is verified and tagged by our analysts, providing a comprehensive view of where the money is flowing. The highlights? 💸 Debt total was a massive €18.7bn from 92 deals 💰 Pre-seed to Series A deals accounted for 82.8% of the total deal count 📈 The average cheque was 23.2% higher in Q2 (€11m) than Q1 (€8.9bn) 🌱 Climate tech received by far the most investment (€21.3bn) 🇬🇧 The UK (€13.3bn) pipped Sweden (€12bn) thanks to a record-breaking May 🤑 €15bn+ of fresh VC capital has been raised — the most since H1 2022 Suffice to say, there’s a lot of interesting data points and storylines to uncover in our H1 review.

Europe may be lagging behind the US in AI investments, but don't count it out just yet. For the past five years, the number of startups in Europe has surpassed those in the US, thanks to a larger population and a growing pool of talent. And while absolute investment may not be as high, lower costs in Europe mean higher capital efficiency. Check out the link for more insights on the state of European tech. #Europe #startups #technology #investment #talent #efficiency
