The ranking algorithm was built in cooperation with our Global Data Partners at CrunchBase, Semrush, UNAIDS, and Meetup. The report was also joined by more than 40 governments, municipalities, and economic development organizations. It is the most comprehensive rankings of the global startup ecosystem done to date. The previous reports since 2017 were featured by hundreds of publications and quoted by prime ministers, ministers, and mayors. Here is a direct report download link available for journalists and ecosystem builders. The report is available for the public and includes a specific analysis of the Middle East and Africa on page 33.
