Mapping investors for European innovators

As the next milestone in our programme, this study provides a comprehensive mapping of technology investors for European startups. The study presents the Technology Investor Score (TIS), a novel metric designed to identify investors specialising in technology-driven companies based on the percentage of patenting companies within their portfolios. Identifying investors that can support tech startups in commercialising their inventions is crucial for startups, innovation agencies, private investors and policymakers seeking to address funding gaps and strategic challenges.
