Netherlands Seed Startups Show 2.9% Higher Single-Round Share Than France
- 57.1% of Netherlands seed startups raised only one round
- 54.2% of France seed startups raised only one round
- Netherlands leads France by 2.9 percentage points in seed single-round share
Across the 1,407 seed-stage startups in the Netherlands tracked by Brouky whose first tracked round was at least two years ago, 57.1% raised exactly one round and did not raise again. This single-round share exceeds France's 54.2% share among 3,479 comparable seed startups, though this difference may partly reflect expanding data coverage.
Both countries show similar single-round shares when including preseed startups, with 55.9% in the Netherlands and 56.2% in France. This suggests that at the very earliest stages, the likelihood of raising only one tracked round is close, but diverges slightly at seed stage.
The data covers startups with first tracked rounds at least two years old to allow time for follow-on rounds. While a second round not captured by tracking would inflate these stall rates, the cross-country comparison remains valid under consistent coverage assumptions.
