In this third episode of the European Tech Talks, we wanted to tackle a topic that is close to our heart at the European Champions Alliance: climate. The urge to act is clear and acknowledged all around the globe, but vision differs between countries especially on both sides of the Atlantic. In her conversation with Mathieu Aguesse, the CEO of School Lab in San Francisco and teacher at Berkeley Haas on Equitable Design, Anne-Sophie tries to understand why the approach on fighting climate change is so different between Europe and the US. Regulation or profits, which approach will succeed?

For this second episode of European Tech Talks, we sat with Jonathan Hollis from Mountside Ventures to analyze the current funding climate. Disclaimer: it's bad. Between economic uncertainty, war in Ukraine and post-Covid inflation, there is little room left to raise money for your startup. But also for VCs themselves.

It's been a fascinating conversation with Jonathan, trying to understand the current context and its impact on funding rounds. We've also discussed how startups should adapt their pitch to investors. And on what criteria (and by who) you will be evaluated as a company in Europe.

The money raising game has changed, it's time to adapt!

For this very first episode of European Tech Talks, Anne-Sophie is receiving Andrea Vaugan in her capacity as founder and secretary general of the European Champions Alliance. Andrea is European by heart being born and raised in Germany and having settled in France now for more than 20 years. Through her professional experiences as a CMO and Head of DACH for French startups, and then as a consultant helping French companies enter the German market, she realized that a piece of the ecosystem was missing. So she decided to launch the European Champions Alliance (ECA) in 2020.

Since then the ECA has evolved into a multinational organization, regrouping hundreds of startups, scaleups, corporates, and experts in the common motivation of building an ecosystem that contributes to the emergence of European tech champions.
