European Tech Startups Raised Over €1.8B Across 65+ Deals Last Week

European tech companies closed more than 65 funding deals worth over €1.8 billion in a single week, according to Tech.eu's weekly funding recap. That tally makes it one of the heavier weeks on record for the continent's venture calendar this year.

The figure comes from Tech.eu's own deal tracker, which aggregates announced funding rounds across Europe's tech sectors. The recap counts every disclosed round from early-stage checks to late-stage growth deals, and the €1.8 billion-plus total spans the full spread of company stages.

What does the weekly number tell us?

Two data points stand out. First, deal count: more than 65 transactions in seven days signals breadth, not just a handful of outsized rounds. Second, total value: over €1.8 billion means the average deal in the week ran well past €27 million, pointing to meaningful weight in the growth-stage portion of the market.

Weekly recap totals like this one move with the announcement calendar. A single mega-round can swing the headline figure by hundreds of millions of euros, so week-to-week comparisons need care. Still, a week that clears €1.8 billion across 65-plus deals shows capital is flowing at both ends of the pipeline, not concentrated in one lucky round.

Why weekly recaps matter for the funding picture

Tech.eu publishes the recap as a standing feature, tracking European tech investment activity on a rolling basis. Readers use these weekly totals to gauge momentum between the quarterly and annual reports that dominate venture coverage.

The latest edition adds to a 2024-2025 pattern in which European funding activity has run in bursts rather than a steady climb. Weeks like this one — high count, high total — are the bursts investors and founders watch for.

The next Tech.eu recap will show whether this week's €1.8 billion-plus was a spike or the start of a sustained run.
