Venly has been awarded second place in the Emerce Top 10 European Startups Award 2022 at EDAY! Amidst the current European ecosystem of more than 113 thousand startups and scale-ups, the companies included in this cohort are considered to be the top ten European startups in their respective fields by Emerce’s editors with input from VCs, M&A specialists, bankers and journalists across Western Europe. 

To be considered for the award, all companies are required to have a head office in Europe, be less than six years old, and have at least two million euros in turnover or funding. Having recently raised 21 million euros in funding, and offering services for companies such as Shopify, the Sandbox, and Ubisoft, this award serves as a testament to our demonstrable acceleration in the space, propelling blockchain technology to the forefront of business solutions in Europe and beyond. 

Our CEO and Co-Founder, Tim Dierckxsens said, “Last year, Olio and Gorillas were included in Emerce EDAY’s list of top 10 European startups, which have both since grown to become household names across Europe. With this in mind, our whole team is honored to be recognized alongside the leading innovative businesses in Europe, as a result of our  hyper-growth and unique offering to  seamlessly bridge the gap between Web2 and Web3. Our value proposition is rooted in providing accessible blockchain technology to the masses, and as we continue to grow and expand, we look forward to enhancing blockchain adoption and providing solutions for developers, businesses, and end users alike.”

Emerce EDAY is an innovative event that combines leading voices in tech, eCommerce, brands and media. In addition to the award, we were delighted to have the chance to participate in the final panel of the day, which shone a spotlight on talented startups that are prospering in the space despite the various challenges seen as a result of the current macroeconomic landscape. Looking ahead, we are excited to continue on our high-growth journey alongside the continued development of our solutions and offerings.
