In our third collaboration with the European Investment Fund (EIF), we released The VC Factor: Gender Lens Edition in 2023. The report maps the EU venture capital (VC) landscape and provides insights into women's participation in VC funds and startups. To explore Europe's top venture capital hubs and their interconnectedness – including metrics such as centrality, integrated value of influence, and gender balance – an interactive dashboard has been launched.
