European tech closes €818M week with 70+ deals, exits
European tech startups secured more than €818 million across 70 funding rounds last week, alongside at least 10 exits, mergers, or acquisition-related developments, according to data tracked by tech.eu.
The figures follow a period of fluctuating activity, with totals in recent weeks varying widely. The number of deals appears consistent with prior reports, though the average round size may differ from earlier highs. This could reflect shifts in investor behavior, though the data does not specify whether capital is being spread more broadly or concentrated in certain sectors.
Exits and M&A transactions also appear to align with earlier trends, though the exact pace and scale remain unclear. Disclosed rounds suggest involvement from sectors like climate, fintech, and enterprise SaaS, though no single category stands out as dominant.
Regional distribution remains a point of interest, as recent data has hinted at disparities between hubs. Whether last week’s figures reinforce or deviate from those patterns is uncertain. Observers may look to upcoming weeks for clues about whether the current pace will persist or shift toward different deal structures.
