Top 10 rounds account for 42% of quarterly capital

The ten largest rounds of the 90 days to 24 July 2026 totalled €11.8B, or 42% of the €28.18B raised across 737 deals in the window — a concentration ratio that underlines how few transactions shape aggregate volume. That total capital figure itself rose 26% from €22.31B in the prior 90-day period, even as deal count moved from 822 to 737, a drop of 85 deals. With a median round of just €5.1M against an average of €38.2M, the gap between typical and largest deals is stark, and the roster of biggest rounds makes the pattern concrete: Pure Data Centres led at €2.32B, followed by Isomorphic Labs at €1.79B, both based in the UK, while Germany placed three companies — Helsing at €1.58B, Neura Robotics at €1.21B, and Quantum Systems at €1.05B — among the six largest disclosed rounds. Together these six alone sum to €8.89B, illustrating that a handful of UK- and Germany-based companies account for a disproportionate share of the quarter's largest financings.
