Since its first closing in March 2023, the fund has invested in 16 startups, among which are:
- PivotProcurement solution positioned as a competitor of COUPA
- The Mobile-St CompanyB2B application studio inspired by the “Hyper-Casual” approach
- Altroveplatform combining AI and automation to accelerate the search for new materials
- Voltaonline commerce tool dedicated exclusively to B2B exchanges
Of these 16 participations, eight are French, six are located in the Nordic countries, one is in the United States and one in Italy.
More than 200 investors have contributed to this first fund, including family offices, funds of funds and several tech entrepreneurs (founders of Unity, Pleo, Qonto, 3shape, Spendsk, Voodoo, Pennylane, Jobandtalent, Ledger, Zendesk, etc. .). Danish (EIFO) and French (Bpifrance) sovereign funds also participate in the operation.
The general climate remains unavoidable, the scarcity of exits slowing down the mobilization of capital. Despite this, Emblem has reached its hard cap of 80 million euros and plans to deploy this amount over a period of about four years. The fund is intended to finance between 25 and 30 startups at this start -up stage, before considering the lifting of a second vehicle of a similar size.
