Preface In 2019, European innovation looked primed for unprecedented growth. Startup Genome found that 14 of the world’s top 30 innovation ecosystems were European, while Sifted and Dealroom credited the region’s start-ups for creating over 2 million jobs and 10% of job growth. Factors across the board indicated that Europe was finally closing that gap in company valuation, the number of unicorns and even the amount of capital, while political support for both the digital and green agenda had taken priority with the European Commission.

No part of this publication may be reproduced or transmitted in any form or by any means, including photocopying and recording, or by any information storage and retrieval system. Preface Europe’s innovation ecosystems are growing more quickly than ever, and the continent has recently taken forward-looking steps to shape the future of innovation: last year’s regulations on protection and the free flow of non-personal data were a significant step by the European Union to provide a regional framework for dealing with data, protecting citizens and developing an effort to recognize the competitive nature of data-driven economies and the need to protect values and the rights of citizens. Despite this momentum, challenges for Europe remain. Large platform companies from Asia and North America are beginning to dominate emerging deep technologies. Europe is lagging in the digital transformation of industries key to its success in the Fourth Industrial Revolution. It is also behind in investment in new technologies, such as artificial intelligence, where it captured only 11% of global Børge Brende, corporate investment and venture capital in 2016 compared to 50% in the United States and 39% in President and China.
