Pulse of the European Startup Ecosystem — Update Q1 2022

About the Pulse of the European Startup Ecosystem
The European startup scene is changing fast. There are new players, old ones fading away, and even more to come in their place- all vying for a piece of this growing pie! In order not to get left behind you need regular updates on what’s going on so that our entrepreneurs can stay one step ahead when building or investing in companies here. That’s why we started the “Pulse of the European Startup Ecosystem” which will provide you with quarterly podcasts chronicling different aspects related to startup activity across European Hubs, supported by the data from the specialized analytics company DEEP Ecosystem.

Funding for fintechs is in our metrics still No1, even though Deep Tech is much broader.

We see meetups as a leading indicator. People joined meetups in large hubs online, especially Stockholm. Now more meetups take place in person again and so they become less international, with lower attendance.
