  1. 3000 Startups 30 accelerators in London Gov. created incentives for angel investors 150GBP EIS\SEIS 85-95M GBP for seed , 65M Angel. Avg. Seed ~170K GBP . Almost no convertibles Opening a company in minutes Simpler to IPO in UK than US Finance institutions Media and Entertainment companies
  2. British reserve and American exuberance may be well-worn clichés, but like most clichés they carry an underlying truth. While British and American entrepreneurs increasingly harbour similar ambitions, when it comes to articulating them, cultural norms have a tendency to reveal themselves. In pitch situations, this can materially hamper British entrepreneurs’ ability to raise money. - Robin Klein Index ventures 3000 Startups 30 accelerators in London Gov. created incentives for angel investors 150GBP EIS\SEIS 85-95M GBP for seed , 65M Angel. Avg. Seed ~170K GBP . Almost no convertibles Opening a company in minutes Simpler to IPO in UK than US Finance institutions Media and Entertainment companies
  3. Berlin was characterized as “Copy Cat” startups Entrepreneur type – MBA – Consultant firm type. Less engineering focused German Gov. HTGF propelled investments in startups 500K Euro for 15% equity Issues: High taxes Social benefits High legal risk to CEO and board General Risk avoidance culture
  4. 3000 startups Many are “stuck locally” and build a life style Also push them to “Me Too” Regulatory issues Very high taxation Social employment Culture Lack of “Giving Back” mentality Jeremy Beraby : - Entrepreneurs in Paris will exit way too soon - Lack of global tech company activities
