Recently Funded Biotechnology Startups in Germany

Updated Sep 2026

There are 102 funded Biotechnology startups in Germany in the FundedIQ database, each with its funding rounds, amounts, investors, industries, locations and company details. This page provides an overview of the Biotechnology startup funding landscape in Germany, along with the 100 most recently funded Biotechnology startups in Germany.

Biotechnology startups in Germany closed 51 funding rounds over the last 24 months, 25 of them in the last 12 months, and raised $1.4B in disclosed capital. The median disclosed round is $8.5M, with the middle half of rounds falling between $4.1M and $31M. Berlin and Munich hold the deepest concentrations of these companies.

Biotechnology activity concentrates heavily in Berlin and Munich. This geographic density allows for targeted outreach within a few urban centers. While Hamburg and Planegg provide additional pockets of interest, the heavy weighting toward the primary cities means a regional strategy remains effective. Small team sizes dominate the sector, making direct access to founders a viable path.

About the FundedIQ Biotechnology startup funding data in Germany

FundedIQ tracks announced startup funding rounds and organises them by company, funding date, stage, amount, industry, location and investor. The dataset is refreshed weekly, and new rounds are normalised and de-duplicated before they are published, so the same round reported twice on different dates is recorded once.

Figures on this page cover the 102 funded Biotechnology startups in Germany currently tracked. Round counts, capital totals and the median round are computed over a trailing 24 months. Rounds whose amount was not disclosed (7 of 51 in that period) are counted as rounds but excluded from capital totals and from the median. The most recent round on record for funded Biotechnology startups in Germany is dated Aug 2026.

The table above shows the 100 most recently funded companies. Full funding histories, investor lists and founder contacts across the whole dataset open on a FundedIQ plan.
