Network Finances

About The Fund

Network Finances is a Paris-based venture capital firm founded in early 2008 by a group of European internet entrepreneurs. The firm is focused on financing projects in the seed and early stages, particularly within the internet, mobility, and digital media sectors. They offer support and expertise to their portfolio companies through a unique monitoring system which allows a dedicated sponsor to leverage the entire network's expertise to produce significant leverage effects for the startups' success. Network Finances makes high-tech, high-growth potential investments during the first seed rounds, with a preference for internet, mobility, and digital sectors more broadly. The firm prides itself on a strategy that solely focuses on internet and mobile sectors as key drivers of growth and employment in France. According to the 'Guide des Startups 2014' by Olivier Ezratty, their high-tech proficiency and the experience of its members rank them among the most accomplished and high-performing entrepreneur funds. When selecting investments, they prioritize entrepreneurial leadership with strategic vision, a complementary and experienced team, markets with high growth potential, and innovative products or services in B2B or B2C with international growth potential. With their investment minimum at €750,000 and maximum at €1,200,000, they specialize in seed, early, and later-stage investments, taking always minority stakes. The portfolio management is overseen by three well-known internet industry personalities, and the firm boasts a dynamic approach, processing hundreds of innovative projects per year and actively fostering their portfolio companies' international growth potential.
