Last month our colleague Beth Faus was invited to share some inside tips with Founders at the AWS Startup Day, together with Victor Navarro Garcia from Yellow and Jordi Vidal from Kibo Ventures How is the funding landscape? European VC investments decreased in 2023 to reach pre-pandemic levels. There was a decline of over 55% from the record-breaking year of 2021 and the total investment was $45 billion, down from $82 billion in 2022. However, the market imbalance, characterized by more available capital than Series A-ready companies, offers an opportunity for well-prepared startups with strong metrics to attract investment, which is a positive message for promising companies looking to fundraise now. Thanks Amazon Web Services (AWS) for the invite and Norrsken Barcelona for hosting us.
