At Eleven, we’ve always believed in building bridges – between founders, investors, and the ecosystem’s future builders. That’s why we teamed up with JEME Bocconi Studenti, the oldest student-run consulting firm at Bocconi University, for collaborative research report analyzing the state of startups and venture capital in Central and Eastern Europe.

Over the past three months, a multicultural team of five students dug deep into the CEE tech landscape. The result? A data-rich comprehensive paper capturing the trends, talent, and tenacity shaping CEE as one of Europe’s fastest-growing innovation hubs.
