Cloud sector tops 30-day sector ranking on two deals

Cloud leads the 30-day sector ranking with €2.98B from just 2 deals, ahead of Healthtech's €1.53B across 35 deals and Fintech's €908M across 32 deals. That concentration traces almost entirely to a single transaction: Nscale's €2.95B debt round, closed on 28 September 2026 in the UK, which alone accounts for 99% of Cloud's 30-day total. That debt financing also makes up €2.95B of the UK's broader €4.59B raised across 64 deals in the same window, the largest country total shown, meaning debt financing represents nearly two thirds of the UK's 30-day volume. By contrast, Healthtech and Fintech built their totals from far broader deal activity, with 35 and 32 rounds respectively versus Cloud's two. In the 7-day window, Cloud does not appear among the top sectors at all, while Healthtech leads with €463M from 10 deals, underscoring that Cloud's 30-day position rests on one large, aged transaction rather than sustained recent dealmaking.
