Europe has the science. Europe has the talent. Now we need the investment to match.
At #Forbion 20th anniversary, my message was clear: the future of biotech in 🇪🇺will not be built by regulation alone. It depends on investors willing to back the next generation of breakthroughs.
We find it important to support the open letter published by the European Life Sciences Coalition, urging #EU leaders to prioritise #lifesciences for #Europe & a stronger European life science ecosystem: shorturl.at/9DOeV @InvestEuropeEU @EU_Commission #EUpol #EUCommission

LAUNCHED TODAY 🚀
Invest Europe’s data on fundraising, investments and divestments is the most authoritative and comprehensive study on private equity (including listed PE), growth and venture capital activity in Europe. Last year, fundraising and investments rose as market activity continued to recover across the continent.
For the first time, our annual Private Equity Activity report has been expanded to include data on continuation funds.
Key highlights:
🔹€147bn raised – up 16% year-on-year, the second highest on record
🔹€135bn invested – also the second strongest year to date
🔹Buyout fundraising reached €103bn, supported by renewed North American investor demand
🔹Venture capital investment totalled €20bn – 20% above the five-year average and divestments – across Europe from 2007 to the present day.
