European Tech Scene Gets Its Own Live Network

Launched in October, the London-based European Technology Network (ETN) is set to broadcast live five days a week starting June 27, marking a significant expansion. This move follows a successful seed funding round that secured $1.6 million from key media ecosystem players, including Powerhouse Capital and Axel Springer SE.

With this new funding, ETN is relocating to a larger studio in Kings Cross, expanding its team from eight members, and introducing a newsletter. The network, which has already garnered over 5 million views on its live streams across X and YouTube, focuses on the rapid pace of Europe's tech and AI scene.

ETN aims to become a central platform for discourse on European technology, venture capital, and AI. Co-founders Luke Knight and Ronan Chambers view the network as a vital outlet to keep pace with the burgeoning European startup ecosystem, which has seen billions in funding this year alone. They also acknowledge the pioneering work of TBPN in this new media landscape.

The network plans to feature interviews with prominent figures, including investors and policymakers, and will broadcast from major tech conferences across Europe. While primarily focused on European innovation, ETN remains open to featuring American founders, emphasizing a globally optimistic outlook for technological advancement originating from Europe.
