AI Drives Europe’s Second Straight Quarter Of Funding Gain
“European venture funding reached $17.6 billion in Q1 2026 … That’s up nearly 30% year over year and marks the second consecutive quarter of growth. As was the case globally and in North America, the main driver was AI, which for the first time claimed more than 50% of Europe’s total funding for the quarter.”
“And as was the case in the Q4 as well, Q1 was well above the prior five quarters by funding amounts, signalling that European venture funding may be gaining momentum.”
“Overall, Europe is in-line with global trends as capital concentrates into the largest deals in sectors that are surging due to AI.”
