Is 2022 the start of a new VC Cycle? - European Startup Pulse

Episode notes

Executive Summary We are back with quarterly cooperation with DEEP Ecosystems research from Munich. Today we talk about a few highlights of their extensive 2022 report. Our current impression is that the VC market could start a new cycle from the lows of Q4 2022. We already see a new uptick in seed investments in Barcelona, London, Paris, Berlin, and Stockholm. Also, London is losing some of its edge as a European Startup Ecosystem compared to the other hubs. For VCs, the next hot sector to invest in Europe is cleantech. Despite the job cuts in 2022, at the year's end, there still have been more employees at startups across Europe than before Corona. "The mood is down in the venture capital market. Startups definitely feel the crunch, but there is still dry powder available." Thomas Kösters - DEEP Ecosystems Subscribe Here We are always sharing new resources with you.
