Today, we’re launching a new article series, to make sure we’re comprehensively covering the most exciting funding rounds for European startups. We’re a small team, don’t have time to write an article on every deal, and would rather devote our time to more in-depth reporting on what’s going on in tech on the continent.
So, every day, we’ll post an article covering the most exciting rounds we’ve seen, starting from €1m. Let us know if this is useful — and if you have news to tell us, please email news@sifted.eu with a clear embargo.
Today, there’s space tech, climate tech and micro-fighting healthtech.
