Frequently asked questions

What is Kreaxi's investment mandate?

Kreaxi manages regional venture capital and private equity funds focused on early-stage through growth investments in French startups, with an emphasis on the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region. Its mandate spans seed, venture, and management buyout transactions in digital, health, and industrial sectors. The firm serves as a delegated manager for regional public investment programs alongside institutional limited partners.

How does Kreaxi source its deal flow?

Kreaxi sources primarily through its embedded position in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes entrepreneurial ecosystem, maintaining close relationships with regional incubators, university labs, and industrial clusters. Its role as a delegated manager for French public investment programs gives it visibility into grant-backed startups and academic spinouts. The firm also participates in cross-border European syndicates for later-stage rounds.

What is Kreaxi's relationship with Bpifrance and regional authorities?

Kreaxi functions as a delegated fund manager for several public-backed investment vehicles, including regional innovation funds co-sponsored by Bpifrance and Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes regional authorities. This relationship provides stable capital commitments and preferred access to deal flow but imposes policy-related investment criteria alongside return objectives.
