Is EU-Startups worth it?

Worth a few minutes for a startup based in Europe, mainly for visibility with readers, investors and corporates who browse the database. It is not a backlink source: on the listings checked the website is shown as plain text with no link. Listings are free and never expire, but only European countries are offered as categories. For real exposure, pair the listing with a news pitch about a launch or funding round.

Suits startups headquartered in the EU, the UK, Switzerland or Norway, including software and AI companies. The site says it reaches more than 300,000 startup interested readers each month.
