In this special year-end episode, we look back at the stories that defined European tech in 2025 — and ahead to what 2026 may hold. Instead of Tech.eu journalists alone unpacking the biggest developments of the year, we turned to what you read most in 2025, and invited the founders and investors behind those headlines to share their perspectives on the moments, decisions, and shifts shaping Europe’s innovation economy. From defence and deeptech to venture capital, regulation, and Europe’s race for global scale, our guests reflect on the forces that mattered most in 2025 — and what they believe will define the year ahead.
