  • Proud to announce our participation to the Seed round of Kurrent (formerly Event Store), together with Creandum, Crane Venture Partners, Cocoa 🍫 and Common Magic. We anticipate the future of databases to transition from the What to also include the When, How and Why. Kurrent is working on context-aware databases, a transformational concept that will complement the data stack of the modern enterprises. Super happy to partner with Kirk Dunn and team - onwards and upwards!

    Today Kurrent is ⚡charging⚡ahead with new funding from Crane Venture Partners + Creandum and the launch of Kurrent Enterprise Edition! I’m extremely proud of the Kurrent team and grateful to our investors for their incredible support. Now that our new company name and rebrand design are *official*, check out Kurrent’s newly redesigned website: www.kurrent.io The balanced sense of motion-meets-stability in the design reflects how Kurrent bridges streaming + databases to bring what we’re calling  “Context in Action” to life. Like a DVR for business data, *Kurrent is a context machine.* Our event-native data platform captures and replays not just WHAT happens in the business, but WHEN, HOW and WHY so businesses can make sense of themselves and the world they play in. Every business needs context. It’s a huge market opportunity and a chance to make a REAL difference in how data transforms businesses and lives.

Beyond Aero's innovative approach to hydrogen-powered electric aircraft is not just revolutionary; it's essential 🌍 for addressing the urgent challenges posed by climate change. Their vision to transform the aviation sector has immense potential for significant emissions reduction. We were incredibly impressed by Eloa Guillotin's visionary leadership and the team's ability to go above and beyond expectations – achieving France's first manned fully hydrogen-electric flight earlier this year 🚀 is a testament to their dedication to pushing the boundaries of aerospace innovation. 2100 Ventures is proud to support Beyond Aero alongside our friends at Giant Ventures and other notable investors like Initialized Capital, Bpifrance, and high-profile tech leaders.

    🎉 Exciting news! Huge congratulations to our portfolio company autone on raising $17M in their Series A, led by General Catalyst! 🚀 Inventory planning is vital in the retail sector to maintain margins and meet customer demand. However, managing orders, stocking, and inventory has become increasingly complex due to the proliferation of distribution channels, global supply chain challenges, unpredictable lead times, and shorter sales cycles. autone is an AI-powered platform helping retailers transform their business through optimal inventory management, processing massive data points to forecast demand accurately, reduce waste, and boost efficiency. Retailers using autone report up to 55% less inventory, a 30% increase in sales, and significant time savings. This drives both profitability and sustainability, helping brands meet new regulations. We’re thrilled to support Adil and Harry, and the entire autone team in this round, alongside Speedinvest, Seedcamp, Motier Ventures, Y Combinator, and others. 🤝 💙 Read more about our investment here: https://lnkd.in/d9Gg6EEH Press coverage here: https://lnkd.in/gzkpjpCN

    🎉 Massive congratulations to Foreverland Food on their €3.4 million seed round! This funding will enable them to scale production of their sustainable, carob-based chocolate alternative. 🍫🌱 The past year has seen the cocoa market rocked by a staggering 300% increase in raw material costs. This crisis stems from the relentless effects of climate change, which have severely reduced production in most of the world's cocoa supply. Moreover, the unsustainable nature of cocoa production has become increasingly apparent: it ranks first in water consumption and third in CO2 emissions, while also contributing significantly to deforestation. 🌍 Choruba, Foreverland's alternative, offers a stark contrast. It requires 90% less water and produces 80% fewer CO2 emissions. The company also promotes the use of carob—a forgotten ingredient—and its Italian supply chain 🇮🇹, with the mission of creating a more inclusive and delicious future. We’re happy to support Massimo, Riccardo, and Giuseppe and the entire Foreverland Food team in their round, alongside our friends at Exor Ventures, Grey Silo Ventures, @Maia, and Kost Capital, among others. 🤝💚

It addresses this challenge by automating data extraction and analysis, turning vast amounts of information into actionable insights.

    Big congratulations to Jet HR on their newly announced €12M funding round! 🎉 It's been great to stand shoulder to shoulder with Marco, Francesco, and the whole team from day one, supporting their mission to simplify bureaucracy and help Italian SMEs manage the daily challenges of payroll management

    Siamo partiti poco più di un anno fa dicendo che l’obiettivo di Jet HR era far sì che 1 dipendente su 5 in Italia venisse pagato tramite la nostra piattaforma. Era e rimane un obiettivo gigante. Piano piano però possiamo dire che sta diventando sempre più vero e sempre più vicino. Oggi annunciamo che dopo solo un anno abbiamo raccolto 12 milioni per arrivare a gestire le paghe e i dipendenti aiutando migliaia di aziende in Italia. Abbiamo dovuto creare una lista d’attesa, perchè ci siamo resi conto che la domanda era troppa, e vogliamo creare un prodotto che sia veramente utile per ogni tipo di azienda. Grazie a Picus Capital, che dopo aver investito in vari unicorni HR e Payroll nel mondo, ha deciso anche di puntare su di noi. Grazie anche a Exor N.V., Italian Founders Fund, 2100 Ventures e Proximity Capital per la riconfermata fiducia. Siamo particolarmente fieri di avere tra i soci i migliori founder italiani come Luca Ferrari di Bending Spoons e Alberto Dalmasso di Satispay; di avere Diego Piacentini, che ha guidato un grande sforzo di digitalizzazione del governo; David Clarke, ex CTO della più grande azienda HR-tech al mondo; Felix Blossier, founder di un unicorno nel mondo della contabilità francese, che sta combattendo una battaglia simile alla nostra.
