Market Context in Europe :
- 60% Decrease in Financing in Europe in H1 2023 Compared to H1 2022: The first half of 2023 witnessed a dramatic decrease in investments in European startups. Several factors contributed to this decline, including high-interest rates, increasing inflation, the closure of initial public offerings (IPOs), and an increasingly challenging fundraising environment. Although the downward trend persists, some experts predict a return to venture capital investment growth by 2024.
- 28% Decrease in the Number of Deals in H1 2023 Compared to the Previous Year: The number of transactions in the startup sector also saw a significant decrease, reflecting the prevailing uncertainty in the European startup market.
