These companies are growing extremely quickly and will be the unicorns of tomorrow

For the fourth year in a row, Adyen and TNW are celebrating European startups with the Tech5. In this competition, we measure companies on growth in revenue over the last three years. Which seems like a good indicator for future success as the participants from 2016 have raised a combined 1.7 billion.  

Tech5 has now entered its final stage. Since December, we’ve searched the hottest tech ecosystems of Europe, traveled to six countries, and organized private dinners announcing the fastest growing company in those countries. Just last Wednesday, TNW and Adyen were in Stockholm to announce Sweden’s winner.

Now the moment has finally come to announce the complete Tech5 of all six countries and the country winners that will participate in the grand finale at TNW Conference (18 May).
