Dawn Capital’s Shamillah Bankiya breaks down the state of the Euro venture market


Dawn Capital’s latest partner, Shamillah Bankiya, stopped by Equity this week to talk about the European landscape and the biggest misconceptions Americans have about the European startup world.

She said the European landscape has been exciting for some time now, and indeed, some of the hottest startups, especially in AI and fintech, have come from the continent (think Lovable and Klarna, the latter of which just had a blockbuster IPO in New York). What’s changed, she said, is the interest American investors have taken in European countries, a shift she says the pandemic contributed to significantly. “We’re going to see this interesting pattern of amazing European companies coming out and winning globally, as they’ve always won.”
