Venture Capital
We’re a mission-driven venture capital firm certified B Corp. Our proprietary digital and AI platform, Flamel, and our community of 400 experts are two key pillars that help us — and the companies we back — scale with purpose and impact.
We invest in European early-stage startups with strong international ambitions like Back Market, Hubcycle, Swile and Moonwatt.

Our portfolio
Our ambition is not just to build great companies.
We invest in 1000x individuals — those rare minds who don’t just create products, but create movements. The visionaries, pioneers, and changemakers who don’t settle for incremental progress — they aim for exponential transformation. A 1000x individual doesn’t just build a company. They redefine industries. They rewrite the rules. They push humanity forward. Because the future isn’t rewritten by institutions — it’s rewritten by people.
