Europe’s startup ecosystem has taken huge strides in recent years. However, the gap with hubs like Silicon Valley and China remains large. Taking Europe’s startup ecosystem to the next level requires a clearer vision about European entrepreneurship and an informed two-way discussion between the private sector and policy makers. European Startups provides a trusted and easily accessible source of open-access intelligence to fulfil that purpose.
