PARTNERS
There are many companies, small and big, trying to get on the Artificial
Intelligence bandwagon. Machine Learning is the new buzz word and AI is the
slang word these days. What does happen in this exiting field in Europe? Is AI
common ground for all businesses or the exclusive territory for a few? Who
has managed to validate a business model for autonomous vehicles or
chatbots?Whatdoesdata-drivenor API-firstbusinessmodelslook like?
With this report we want to provide a comprehensive review of investment in
startups and high-growth AI and Data Analytics companies across 22 countries
in Europe. Our aim is to provide data-driven guidance, insights, perspective
andinspirationto stakeholdersintheEuropeanscaleupecosystem.
Sincerely,

9% of European AI & Data Analytics scaleups are
spin-offs or spin-outs from universities and
knowledgeinstitutes.
It’s very much in line with the 8% of the scaleups
across all industries. It indicates that AI became
accessible to a largepoolof founders.
Even in the Autonomous Vehicles domain, only
one scaleup is a spin-off: BestMile from École
PolytechniqueFédéralede Lausanne.

16% of the European AI scaleups graduated from
an acceleration program. That’s 2% more than
the14% across all industries.
Program alumni don’t necessary raise more
money, but they are 1.5 years younger on average
when they raise money. It might well be that they
can start to scale earlier or have better access to

METHODOLOGY

33
Scaleups, not startups, are generating added value,
create jobs, expand international and create
economic value for stakeholders and society. This
group is attracting the lion share of (venture) capital,
in some countries of up to 90% of all capital. In other
words, we use the Pareto distribution rule to create
an accurate view on the venturing landscape. Only
deals of at least $1M / € 750K are considered.
We encourage you to review the methodology to better understand the
numbers presented in this report. We use a data-driven approach to track
financingactivityforEuropeantechcompanies.
Companies includes web, app, mobile, digital products and services, software,
marketplace, connected hardware, data-driven and HardTech companies.
Companies that have their HQ or launched in Europe are considered.
LifeScience and BioTech (except software solutions targeting this industry),
non digital CleanTech, eCommerce (Hallofresh, Zalando etc) and research
institutesare excluded.
2016 EUROPEAN AI & DATA ANALYTICS REPORT METHODOLOGY

Deals with a non-disclosed value or lacking value indication are not counted. If an amount is described as a
seven-figure number, the lowest possible value has been counted. Funding is registered based on
announcement date. All currencies (USD, GBP, CHF, SEK etc) are converted to Euro using aonda.com. The
number of employees is captured on the moment of fund raising and based on the press release, LinkedIn,
Xing,Viadeoor thecompany’swebsite.
The founding year and location is based on information in press releases, company website, Crunchbase,
LinkedIn or Xing. If deal information is being detected or corrected after closing the month, quarter or year,
it will be included in future reports. Funding of both private and public companies are considered. Debt
financing, IPOs, media for equity, crowdfunding, Initial Coin Offering, private placements, post IPO equity,
privateequity,grantsandconvertibleloansare included.
