In 2024, European AI startups raised $8 billion, demonstrating significant growth in the sector. This surge coincides with the European Union's announcement of the InvestAI initiative, which aims to mobilize €200 billion for artificial intelligence development. Despite this growth in AI funding, overall venture capital fundraising experienced a downturn, hitting a five-year low and decreasing nearly 60% from 2022 levels. A report indicated that 50% of all venture capital invested in the fourth quarter of 2024 worldwide was directed towards AI companies, with mega deals exceeding $1 billion being a primary driver of this trend. Notably, the top 30 venture capital funds captured 75% of the U.S. VC market, with nine funds accounting for half of all investments, while AI deals constituted 46% of all VC dollars and 77% of seed funding.
