As it\u2019s the last day of the first quarter, we\u2019re too antsy to wait any longer to see what\u2019s been going on in Europe. Let\u2019s take an early peek.<\/p>\n In the wake of Techstars\u2019 decision to leave the Swedish market, we looked at Sweden\u2019s startup scene<\/a> earlier this week following a glance at what is happening in the United States<\/a>. Those were useful exercises, but we\u2019ll need a broader dataset to really set our bearings. To that end, let\u2019s look at all of Europe and then consider the three largest venture markets in the region: the U.K., Germany and France.<\/p>\n The Exchange explores startups, markets and money. <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n Read it every morning on TechCrunch+<\/a> or get The Exchange newsletter<\/a> every Saturday.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n The numbers are fascinating and can be read as either bullish or bearish. The negative take is simple: European venture totals are down from a year ago. The more positive perspective is also worth considering: When we focus our view on just the last few quarters, it appears that venture is done contracting.<\/p>\n Naturally, we\u2019ll have oodles more data and charts when Q1 2023 data fully drops, but we can get a head start. Let\u2019s talk Europe.<\/p>\n European startups raised $28.85 billion across 2,274 deals in Q1 2023, according to preliminary PitchBook<\/a> data. That\u2019s less than in Q1 2021, but we already know (and you may be tired of hearing by now) that the 2021 venture vintage was an outlier. However, the figure also represents a year-on-year decline, which may sound like a surprise: In Q1 2022, the downturn had already started in the U.S.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n <\/br><\/br><\/br><\/p>\n
