A third of all investment into European startups has come from US investors so far in 2021. That compares to ~25% of capital coming across the pond over the last five years. US involvement in megarounds for Northvolt, Klarna and UIPath have boosted totals, that contributed to a record quarter for VC in Europe.
We've built a new toy. Our upgraded data viz tool makes it super easy to analyse investment by source - see how much funding in a particular sector or geography is coming from VCs vs CVCs, or from Asia vs the US. Let us know what you find!
Impact is booming. Just 3 months into the year, investment into impact startups is at 42% of 2020's total. On the open-access impact and innovation database, we just passed 6,000 startups individually mapped against at least one UN Sustainable Development Goal.
Last year you might have seen our impact data in Atomico's State of European Tech 2020, or PwC's State of ClimateTech 2020, but you can discover new data and insights all year round at the collaborative online home of impact and innovation, in partnership with Impact City, Danske Bank and Tech Nation.
