There has been a lot of buzz about Europe’s startup scene, there is a wide amount of opinions about its beginning, progress and future. At JobFluent, we wondered about the real numbers. What is the ground like for startups in Europe?

For this reason, we have done a bit of an online research from various trustable sources and gathered ten key numbers of the growing tech startup scene in Europe and worked them into an infographic.

With a population of more than 500 million people, 368 millions of which use the Internet, the European Union represents approximately 15% of the global Internet users, while the rest of Europe is about 6.6%.

According to Wired, the most important startup capitals in Europe are London, Paris, Moscow, Berlin, Stockholm, Amsterdam, Tel Aviv, Istanbul, Helsinki and Barcelona. Nevertheless, the 1600 coworking spaces and 94 startup accelerators are distributed all over the continent.

Venture capital is flowing to European businesses more than ever: the number of VC deals increased 8% in 2013 and the amount of VC funds surged up to $ 8,3 billion in the same year, 41% more than in 2012.

Still, the average time and cost to start a private limited company have both decreased in the last years.
