McKinsey & Company has recently reported that Europe is getting in right when it comes to tech start-ups.
According to their data, 32% of start-ups & scale-ups have been founded in the UK with 4 defined roads to success - network, scale, product & deep tech. These businesses are also more commonly focussed on ecommerce, consumer or media industries.
It also found that scale plays achieve faster commercial success when they invest 'more heavily in sales, marketing & business development roles'. This is definitely in line with what we see when it comes to the recruiting pattern.
