7-day funding rises to €680M despite fewer deals

Funding in the trailing 7 days reached €680M across 32 deals, up from €365M across 37 deals in the prior 7-day window — an increase of about 86% in euro volume even as deal count fell by 5. The rise was led by concentrated, large tickets rather than broad activity: Space topped the 7-day sector list with €161M across just 2 deals, ahead of Healthtech's €154M spread over 8 deals and Energy's €128M from 2 deals. Over the trailing 30 days, funding stands at €3.22B across 133 deals, with AI the largest sector at €677M across 22 deals, ahead of Software's €490M and Fintech's €325M.

The UK leads countries over the 30-day window, with €1.40B across 41 deals, ahead of Sweden's €501M in second place. Sweden's total includes a €100M debt round from Elekta, its only debt deal in the period. The latest 7-day figure of €680M compares with a 30-day total of €3.22B, itself below the prior 30-day window's €7.52B.
