Hey VentureTaler - It’s Alex!
Welcome to another VentureTale. From time to time we are switching things up and today is one of those occasions. Instead of our usual startup discovery, we’ll take a look into some key facts & trends that were uncovered in European tech during 2025.
VentureTales mostly focuses on individual startups, however, it’s always important to have an idea of the macro-environment and market trends compared to global benchmarks.
The summary we have created below is based on primary data compiled by Atomico, Dealroom.co, Cogito Capital Partners, Shape Capital Partners and Crunchbase.
