📜 Unfolding the Portuguese Startup Scene Report 📜 Over the next few weeks, we'll be unveiling key insights from our Portuguese Startup Scene Report 2023 that we presented earlier this year. Let's start with the economic framework of the Portuguese market and its impact on the VC scene: 📉 Throughout 2023, the market continued to contract, following trends from the previous year 📉 We recorded a 24% decrease in the number of investment rounds from 2022 to 2023, coupled with a significant 76% reduction in total investment volume, measured in millions of euros (Disclaimer: a relevant number of companies raised internal bridge rounds which are not typically announced and, as such, are not captured in these numbers) 📉 Significant reduction in the number of deals in Seed and Series A stages when compared to 2022 (-45% and -59% respectively), as international investors and local VCs, the main investors in Seed and Series A stages in 2022, significantly reduced their investment activity 📉 90% reduction in estimated invested amount in Series B and beyond compared to 2022, a contraction mainly driven by lower demand for capital (due to burning rate reduction efforts from startups) and more prudent (and portfolio-focused) investors Discover the full report here: https://lnkd.in/dxvDCWqv Stay tuned for more insights coming soon! 🔜 #Armilar #VentureCapital #StartupSceneReport #Startups
