In 2021, we expect +75% of our clients to receive at least one termsheet from abroad. Globalization of fundraisings is more than ever a reality.
Our team keeps on growing
Baptiste is now a full time member of the fundraising team!
After a training period with us, we are very pleased to count him among us — for years we hope.
Prior to Cambon, he worked for different start-ups in operations & sales where he discovered how to scale and manage high growth from the inside. Then he joined the BPI innovation team to support and finance promising start-ups in their developments. A true rising star!
