Funding Stages

Funding Requirements

We invest in four to five teams per year and focus on helping them reach their maximum potential. We are not looking for early exits. We back Europe-based entrepreneurs willing to build continental or worldwide category leaders. We strongly prefer to lead or co-lead rounds.

Seed to Series B, with check size ranging from €200K to €15 million for our first ticket.

We are not industry-specific as long as your business model is scalable and your product is digital. We have a special affection for DeepTech, enterprise software, marketplaces, and entertainment. We usually do not consider CleanTech & MedTech investment unless there is a special twist.

Our focus is primarily in France, although we are able to invest (and have already done so) in exceptional teams from Europe and the US.
