Among the designated scientific tensions and volatile markets, the problem of Europe’s ability to overcome Europe’s storms, especially Trump, who appears to be a tariff pound on the continent, is on the rise.
However, according to a broad new report, Deepech is especially ready to be the main pillars of European security, defense and future autonomy in the United States.
According to the 184 -page report of the venture firm LakeStar, Walden Catalyst, Dealroom and Deepech Conference, and HELLO TOMORROW, Deepech has attracted € 15 billion ($ 16.3 billion) in a 2024 venture investment. The report also found that almost one -third of all venture capital invested in Europe is now going to Deep Tech.
The M & A activity of the space increased to $ 12.2 billion last year, but European Deep Tech Startup still depends on the US exit. In addition, 50%of the growth capital raised by Deepech Startup comes from outside the continent.
Nevertheless, Deepech can be seen as a hedge for normal “momentum investment” among venture capitalists, the report said.
Lukas Leitner, the co -author of LakeStar’s deep sea investor, said that the designated scientific tensions in Techcrunch, while Europe must take the moment, and Deeptech can be the key to unlocking future restoration of the continent.
But there is no challenge on the future roads. Leitner says the United States has a “flywheel effect” in Deepech, and European ecosystems are still immature, Leitner pointed out. “We have a flywheel in the ‘shallow’ technology scene. You can see many second founders built a great company, such as coming out of Revolut. But it’s not yet from the Deepech company. ”
“In Europe, there are support for powerful research institutes, engineering talents and deepTech, but policy changes are needed to promote the culture of risk.”
Arnaud de la Tour, the CEO of Hello Tomorrow, said that the concept that Europe would be delayed in AI was recently challenged by the appearance of open source Deepsek. But we must have the right policy framework to unlock the types of potential we have. ”
Leitner pointed out that relative weaknesses to Europe’s computing ability are offset by the strengths of Photonics Computing, providing the main advantages of speed and efficiency. “We have a good laser system, so it is really good in Europe with photons. We have a good basic research on optical aspects.”
De La Tour added that science was defended by the Trump administration, and Europe could also use the US brain drain. “The National Science Foundation, the largest supporter of the founder’s application, has reduced its budget in half. Many great scientists no longer have a job and many people have come to Europe. ”
