Starting the Summit off strong with our spotlight panel — The Startup revival: How European tech is bouncing back 🌟 The recent story of European tech has been one of resilience and grit. However following a spike in activity and a return of the megaround, our panelists agree a true return to normality is on the horizon in 2025. Several key takeaways from the session include:  💡 The European startup ecosystem is navigating a complex polycrisis, often serving as a catalyst for rapid innovation. 💡 Europe experienced a year-on-year slowdown in funding, similar to trends observed globally; however, the volume of VC dollars has reached an all-time high. 💡 M&A activity rebounded toward the end of this year, in addition to a wave of new investors entering the market and a significant pipeline of upcoming IPOs. 💡 Looking to the year ahead, European tech is experiencing a surge of ambition and talent, with smart founders actively collaborating and an encouraging response from governments, signalling a readiness to capitalise on the existing ecosystem. Thank you to our panellists, Mike Turner, Partner at Latham & Watkins, Fiona Murray Board member of NATO Innovation Fund (NIF), Fredua A. Akosa, Founder and CEO of Berry Health, Alexandre Momeni, Partner at General Catalyst, Tessa Clarke, Cofounder and CEO Olio and Moderator Sifted’s Founder and Editorial Director, John Thornhill. #startuprevival #startupeurope #siftedsummit
