Trail Solutions Patrimoine

Trail Solutions Patrimoine functions as the venture capital arm of TRAIL, an independent European investment firm that has managed over one billion euros in cumulative capital since its founding. As a specialized subsidiary within the TRAIL group, Trail Solutions Patrimoine focuses on venture capital investments while also creating and managing funds tailored for private clients. Since 2014, the organization has been instrumental in supporting entrepreneurs across France and Europe, providing them with access to valuable Asian resources and leveraging the team's extensive experience as both industrialists and investors.

The TRAIL group has established a significant international presence with strategic offices in Paris, Luxembourg, and Beijing, enabling comprehensive support for portfolio companies seeking expansion across different geographic markets. Their investment philosophy centers on making long-term, responsible commitments that create substantial value for all stakeholders involved. What distinguishes TRAIL is their particular expertise in facilitating European companies' expansion into Asian markets, offering a unique advantage to businesses looking to scale internationally beyond European borders.

With a track record of supporting more than 200 companies, TRAIL employs over 25 professionals and sector experts who bring complementary experiences to the investment process. The firm operates across four distinct investment strategies: LBO/Capital Transmission for established businesses, Growth/Development Capital for scaling companies, Venture/Risk Capital for earlier-stage opportunities, and Tax Funds for specialized investment vehicles. This diversified approach allows TRAIL to engage with companies at various stages of development, from emerging startups to established mid-market enterprises seeking international expansion.

TRAIL has successfully built a diverse client base spanning four key groups: major institutions including banks, insurance companies, and sovereign funds; large corporations seeking strategic investment partnerships; family offices managing private wealth; and retail investors. This broad investor network demonstrates the firm's ability to attract capital from both institutional and private sources, reflecting the market's confidence in their investment approach. The team's commitment to sustainable development of excellence-focused companies has established TRAIL as a trusted partner for both investors seeking returns and entrepreneurs requiring not just capital but strategic guidance for long-term growth.
