2026 Pre-scale Dashboard

About the report

At Climb25 last year, we launched our Scaleup Dashboard. The aim was to use our data to spotlight the startups that were signalling positively on a number of areas, including growing employment numbers, gaining grants or investment, but crucially weren’t yet at that 20% year-on-year scaling classification.

With the rise in region of Series A investment leading to a record year for this stage, we agreed this was a useful tool to highlight businesses who could be on a path to scaling. We’ve now updated the pre-scaling list with increased employment growth data, bringing eight new startups to the Pre-Scale Dashboard!

Additionally, we're now able to share a Scaling Dashboard, designed to spotlight businesses who are achieving or even exceeding the 20% growth mark, getting great investment (but aren’t yet the scale of companies like Twinkl), or getting wider attention due to large series B rounds such as Bumper. Check out the new scaling dashboard ahead of its online launch.
