How your file is handled

From submission to an introduction to an investor: the journey of a founder raising funds.

You submit your file

You fill in the form — company, trade register (RCCM), tax ID (IFU), amount sought, use of funds — and attach your documents. Vetting fee 75 000 F.

Our newsroom vets it

An analyst contacts you within 5 working days: we review your accounts, read your contracts and meet you. If a document is missing, we tell you.

Your file is published

We only publish verifiable information. Your strengths and our reservations appear side by side: that is what gives your file credibility.

An investor gets in touch

We send you their profile, set up the conversation once the NDA is signed, then step aside. You negotiate with your lawyer and financial adviser. No commission is charged.
