Switzerland Has 17.7 Point Higher Share of Seed Startups with Single Round Than Israel

Across the 1,553 startups Brouky tracks whose first tracked round was at least two years ago, seed-stage startups in Switzerland exhibit a notably higher share of single-round fundraisings compared to Israel, a difference that may partly reflect expanding data coverage. Specifically, 87% of Swiss seed startups raised exactly one tracked round and never raised again, versus 73.2% in Israel. This metric reflects the share of startups that did not secure a follow-on round within the tracked data, acknowledging that some second rounds could be untracked.

The difference is even more pronounced at the pre-seed stage, where Switzerland's single-round share reaches 94.1%, substantially higher than Israel's 66.7%. These figures indicate a regional disparity in early-stage funding persistence within the scope of tracked rounds.
