Investment portfolio

  • Aalo Atomics

    Participated · Equity · Apr 2026

    Aalo Atomics is a U.S. scaleup developing next-generation nuclear reactors. The company is described in the coverage as pursuing innovative engineering and an unusually fast execution pace within the nuclear sector. The fundraise drew institutional backers including Ontario Teachers and participation from retail-access fintech Akka. Public reporting about the company in this article did not include founding year, revenue, deployment timelines, or detailed technical specifics. Akka and its CEO emphasized the broader energy challenge and positioned Aalo as a rapid player addressing that market opportunity.

  • Fintower

    Participated · Seed · Feb 2026

    Founded by Salman Eskandari and Ehsan Yazdani, Fintower develops an AI-powered financial planning and analysis (FP&A) platform that consolidates budgets, forecasts, reports, and operational data in a single system. The software integrates with accounting, HR, CRM, and billing tools to enable budgeting, scenario planning, and cash-flow analysis, helping finance teams build flexible models and make faster, data-driven decisions. The product is designed around products, sales, and personnel rather than traditional accounting charts, thereby linking finance and operations more closely. Since its first funding, the company has secured customers across technology, finance, retail, and energy sectors—industries that value structured financial and operational management. Fintower plans to use its latest capital to further develop its platform and support long-term growth. No revenue, user, or other financial performance metrics were disclosed in the article.

  • Yasu

    Led · Seed · Nov 2025

    Yasu is building what it calls the world’s first AI Cloud Engineer, an autonomous agent that embeds cost-optimisation directly into software-development workflows and prevents waste before code is deployed. The platform delivers average savings of 35 % for its early customers and currently manages €3.9 million in cloud spend across companies such as alpha.One, TRaiCE and Smiler. By introducing real-time, agentic intelligence, Yasu tackles the €512 billion in annual cloud overspend within the €1.6 trillion global cloud infrastructure market, a problem exacerbated by a 30 % jump in generative-AI-related workloads. Founded in 2025 and headquartered in the Netherlands, the company positions its product as an AI engineer for every development team rather than another post-deployment monitoring tool. Proceeds from its latest funding will be used to expand go-to-market operations across key European markets, advance its agentic AI capabilities and further develop the autonomous optimisation platform.

  • Orbital Paradigm

    Participated · Seed · Sep 2025

    Orbital Paradigm is developing reusable reentry capsules to enable repeated orbital return missions for customers seeking microgravity test cycles. In less than two years the nine-person team built a test vehicle called KID (about 25 kg and roughly 16 inches across) with no propulsion. KID is a deliberately minimal, non-recoverable demonstration designed to separate from a rocket, transmit data from orbit, survive hypersonic reentry heating and ping home before impact. The company plans a second mission in 2026 featuring a scaled-down Kestrel with propulsion and a parachute to enable recovery in the Azores. Target customers include institutions and startups in biotech and materials that require multiple flights per year; initial KID customers named in the articles are Alatyr and Leibniz University Hannover plus a third unnamed customer. To date Orbital Paradigm has raised €1.5 million in seed funding from Id4, Demium, Pinama, Evercurious and Akka, and built KID with less than €1 million of internal spend.
