Andromède
Andromède was established to steward the assets of the Hériard Dubreuil family, whose wealth originates from a controlling interest in the publicly traded spirits group Rémy Cointreau. The firm operates from Paris and represents a concentrated effort to build permanent capital beyond the family's luxury roots. Chairwoman Marie-Amélie de Leusse is the most visible principal, leading the listed entity, while the family office itself pursues a quiet but assertive privately held portfolio. The office invests across private equity, venture capital, and real estate, with a geographic focus on Europe and a technical tilt toward enterprise software, ESG, and deep industrial applications. It favors direct co-investments and special purpose vehicles alongside corporate and institutional partners. The firm backed drone-data platform Delair and its AI-analytics spin-off Alteia alongside Intel and Galia (2018). It also anchored the build-up of European ratings and ESG consultancy EthiFinance, forming an institutional club with Aviva France (2019) and a consortium including Bpifrance, Eiffel Investment Group, and Siparex to consolidate Spread Research. Total assets are undisclosed and estimated at roughly $1.8 billion. The portfolio extends into real assets, including the Verquin Reims Cathédrale hotel. The firm maintains a network of co-investors that includes Intel, AG2R La Mondiale, Klésia, and SMA BTP — a mix of strategic corporates and French institutional allocators that signals a concentrated, club-style operating model rather than a broad fund-of-funds strategy. Philanthropic capital flows through the Fondation de la 2e chance, a separate charitable vehicle. In May 2026, Altss recorded no new operational events, reinforcing a deliberately low public profile. Andromède's structural differentiator is its hybrid posture: a single-family office that assembles institutional-grade club deals around industrial-tech themes, co-investing corporate partners like Intel, and French pension capital under the same SPV without converting into a regulated asset manager. This architecture keeps permanent family capital at the center while pulling external specialist money into its conviction bets.
