Which European countries do you consider pro-startup?

In my opinion, the startup scene is not evenly supported, and some countries are not so passionate about business. I'm from Central Europe, and I don't feel any extra entrepreneurial spirit here.

From my observations, countries like France, and Germany (maybe Poland) have always been mainly startup-oriented.

In terms of more favourable taxes for entrepreneurs, Cyprus and Estonia came to mind.


But maybe I'm wrong and I'm overlooking local communities.


Could you tell me which country you're from and whether you have a startup-oriented environment? (If you can also name communities, associations, or organizations/hubs for startups, I'd be grateful for broadening my horizons.)


I wanted to show a few organizations from my country (Slovakia) but when looking up for them I found out many of them stopped their activities. 🥲


These few are still active and are probably civic organisations (communities):

  • dasato. sk

  • growni. sk

  • leaf. sk

  • nexteria. sk

I used to think Romania wasn’t very startup-friendly due to all the paperwork, but after learning about other countries, I’ve realized that things here are actually quite simple and affordable! 😄
