EMBLEM

EARLY-STAGE FOCUS Our venture capital firm specializes in providing investment capital to entrepreneurs at pre-seed and seed stages across France and the Nordic region, particularly Denmark and Sweden. Since launching our inaugural €75 million fund in early 2023, we've established ourselves as a strategic partner for innovative startups seeking their initial institutional funding. Our geographic concentration allows us to leverage deep local market knowledge while facilitating cross-border opportunities between these vibrant European startup ecosystems.

The fund is backed by an impressive coalition of institutional and individual investors, creating a powerful network for our portfolio companies. Our institutional backers include Vaekstfonden, the Danish sovereign investment fund known for its commitment to fostering innovation, alongside Edenred, a prominent French corporation listed on Euronext. Complementing these anchor investors are numerous prestigious European family offices that bring multigenerational business expertise and long-term investment horizons to our partnership structure.

What truly distinguishes our investment approach is our ENTREPRENEUR-BACKED MODEL, with over 70 successful French and Nordic technology founders participating as investors in our fund. This entrepreneur-heavy LP base includes founders from companies that have defined their respective sectors, such as Zendesk, Qonto, Pleo, Peakon, and Spendesk. This founder community creates an exceptional resource for our portfolio companies, offering mentorship, industry connections, and operational expertise that extends far beyond traditional capital investment.

Our investment strategy centers on identifying TRANSFORMATIVE TECHNOLOGIES and business models with potential for significant market impact. By engaging at the earliest stages of company development, we can provide hands-on support during the critical formative period. Our cross-border presence between France and the Nordics positions us uniquely to help startups scale across European markets, leveraging our extensive network of industry contacts, technical experts, and follow-on investors. This combination of early-stage capital, founder-driven insights, and multi-market expertise forms the foundation of our value proposition to the next generation of European technology leaders.
