Frequently asked questions
Who runs investment decisions at Notus Technologies?
Sabine Roux de Bézieux is the CEO, and Geoffroy Roux de Bézieux is the founder. The firm operates under their joint leadership, with Geoffroy bringing institutional leverage from his tenure as MEDEF president. Day-to-day investment committee composition is not publicly detailed.
How is Notus Technologies related to the ISAI venture capital fund?
Notus Technologies is a co-founder of ISAI, a French tech venture fund backed by over 150 entrepreneurs. ISAI operates as a separate entity but represents a core platform through which Notus accesses early-stage and growth-stage technology deals.
Does Notus Technologies operate as a family office or a traditional asset manager?
It operates as a hybrid. The firm runs two direct operating divisions — Gastronomy and Outdoor & Mobility — while co-steering the ISAI fund. This structure blends elements of a family holding company, an institutional investor, and a venture capital sponsor.
What sectors does Notus Technologies explicitly avoid?
No public exclusion lists are available. The disclosed focus areas — technology venture, gastronomy, and mobility — suggest the firm avoids heavy industry, extractive sectors, and purely speculative public-markets trading.
Does Notus Technologies maintain philanthropic structures?
Yes. Affiliated foundations include ARAOK Foundation, Fondation de la Mer, and United Way France. Sabine Roux de Bézieux also launched Un Esprit de Famille, an association for family foundations, indicating a deliberate separation of philanthropic governance from core investment activities.
What is Notus Technologies's known posture on co-investments alongside external GPs?
The firm actively participates in co-constructed vehicles, evidenced by its co-founder role in ISAI. Beyond ISAI, its willingness to co-invest alongside other GPs or directly in syndicates is not publicly documented.
How does Geoffroy Roux de Bézieux's role at MEDEF influence Notus Technologies?
His MEDEF presidency (2018–2023) placed him at the center of French corporate and political networks. This institutional connectivity likely opens proprietary deal flow and strategic partnerships not available to peers without comparable public-private positioning, though specific transactions linked to the role are not publicly cataloged.
