In Germany, yes.
The people that usually have the high-enough risk tolerance to build a startup are usually broke college graduates. For a group of 3 broke college graduates each with 10k Euros in debt from BaFoG, coming up with 25k Euros just to try an idea that in the vast majority of cases will not succeed is pretty much impossible.
I finished my masters in germany debt free with 22 years old. The first time I got 25k in the bank was when I was almost 30, that's after working 7 years full time as an employee.
My risk tolerance at 30 is completely different from the one I had at 22. At 22 I could have "lost" 1 or 2 years building a startup that fails, living with 500 Euros a month or less in a shared apartment with my university buddies, waiting tables to pay the bills in between, no problem.
But now that I have 25k ? There is no way in the world I would quit my job to start a company. I have a family that depends on me, and other things I can invest those 25k in (car, house, pension fund, ...).
If you want fresh and broke college students with nothing to do to attempt a moonshot, those moonshots need to be almost free. Only 1 out of every 10.00 or 100.000 moonshots will land your country a profitable company, so you need to have a lot of them.
Requiring people to come up with 25k euros upfront is nuts. If you already had a couple of moonshots succeed, and each moonshot created a generation of 300 millionaires like it happens in the valley, then chances are that some of these risk-friendly and nostalgic millionaires will sponsor some of these startups is high. But Germany would need to somehow create that ecosystem first.
