Europe at Tipping Point: Turning Tech Promise into Power
Europe has made impressive strides in talent, capital, and entrepreneurship over the past decade, yet it still faces a significant challenge: closing the gap with the US tech ecosystem. Despite success stories, European companies often stumble during the scale-up journey, particularly around an ARR of $30M, leading to a smaller VC industry and underwhelming tech IPOs.
