📊 𝟰𝟭% 𝗼𝗳 𝗳𝗲𝗺𝗮𝗹𝗲-𝗳𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗱 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁𝘂𝗽𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗼 𝗿𝗮𝗶𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝗶𝗻 #𝗔𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗮 𝗶𝗻 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟯 𝘄𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗻𝗲𝘄𝗹𝘆 𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗲𝗱, according to the 𝑆𝑡𝑎𝑡𝑒 𝑜𝑓 𝐺𝑒𝑛𝑑𝑒𝑟 𝐷𝑖𝑣𝑒𝑟𝑠𝑖𝑡𝑦 𝐸𝑢𝑟𝑜𝑝𝑒𝑎𝑛 𝑉𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑢𝑟𝑒 𝑅𝑒𝑝𝑜𝑟𝑡. 💰 Similar rates were also seen from the #Netherlands and #Estonia, where as much as 40% of the female-founded startups who secured funding had raised for the first time. 👉 We love having this opportunity to view funding data in new ways, revealing new insights from last years' funding data. 🧠 As we know, the fundraising environment in 2023 was tough for all, as we showcased in our recent report on the DACH region - 𝑁𝑎𝑣𝑖𝑔𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑡ℎ𝑒 2023 𝐹𝑢𝑛𝑑𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝐿𝑎𝑛𝑑𝑠𝑐𝑎𝑝𝑒 - which revealed that the total funding volume declined by 36.1%. Our report also showcased that early-stage investments dominated. 🔑 Despite the challenges, funding is still making its way to early-stage founders, including those right here in our #community. 🚀 Of course, there's still a long way to go. But we know that together we are creating a more equal future in European tech. 🤝 ❓Question for our community: Why do you think countries like #Austria saw such a high proportion of newly backed companies in 2023?

Sometimes all it takes is a bit of 🔴 𝐯𝐢𝐬𝐮𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 🔴 for the stats to really hit home. This graphic is based on the research from "The VC Factor – Gender lens edition, 2023" from European Investment Fund (EIF). It showcases the gender disparity when it comes to #investments that have been made over the past years (2011-2021) in Europe's #startup space. 🤔 What does this picture show us? That those who have been #funded have been not only are majority male-only teams, but that over the 10 year span, 78.1% of #FUNDED companies had no women at all in their top-level jobs. 😎 That's why we're here. We also know that together, we can create #change in a broken system and get more women-led teams funded. 🤝 👉 Does seeing the #data showcased in new ways change the way you look at stats? Let us know! 👇
