Sweden funding rises 74.9% with deal count also up
90 days to 2026-10-23
Sweden's funding rose to €1.51B in the 90 days to 23 October 2026, up from €865M in the prior 90-day period, a 74.9% increase, while deal count climbed to 46 from 38, an increase of 8 deals. That combination of rising capital and rising deal count sets Sweden apart from several larger markets in the same dataset: the UK fell to €10.76B from €13.09B and Germany dropped to €1.56B from €6.76B, both also recording fewer deals, while Finland's funding fell to €226M from €947M even as deal activity narrowed.
Within this set of 12 countries, Sweden's recent €1.51B ranks fifth by funding, behind the UK, France, Spain and Germany, but ahead of the Netherlands' €1.27B. Its deal count of 46 is also mid-table. Among the handful of countries showing gains on both measures, Sweden's 74.9% funding increase is more moderate than Portugal's rise to €572M from €56M, but stronger than the Netherlands' funding growth despite that market's deal count declining.
