Finance & Blockchain's 6.2pp decline cedes ground to Energy, Environment & Mobility's 1.9pp gain
- Energy, Environment & Mobility share grew by 1.9 percentage points
- Industry & Hardware share increased by 1.8 percentage points
- Finance & Blockchain share fell by 6.2 percentage points
Across the 855 pre-seed and seed deals Brouky tracks in Switzerland and Spain from 2021 to 2024, the Energy, Environment & Mobility sector posted the largest share increase, rising by 1.9 percentage points to 11%. This growth slightly outpaced the 1.8 percentage point gain in Industry & Hardware, which reached a 14.5% share.
Both sectors expanded their share of early-stage funding, contrasting with the notable 6.2 percentage point decline in Finance & Blockchain, which dropped from 14% to 7.8%. This shift may partly reflect expanding data coverage. The zero-sum nature of share shifts means these gains came at the expense of sectors like Finance & Blockchain and Commerce & Marketing, which fell by 3.9 percentage points.
MEDIAN ROUND SIZE BY SECTOR (EUR)
Energy, Environment & Mobility rounds commanded the highest median funding at €11.4 million, nearly 1.7 times the Industry & Hardware median of approximately €6.8 million.
