Amadeus
Calle Salvador de Madariaga, 1, Madrid, 28027, Spain
Overview
Amadeus is a transaction processor for the global travel and tourism industry, providing transaction processing power and technology solutions to both travel providers (including full service carriers and low-cost airlines, hotels, rail operators, cruise and ferry operators, car rental companies and tour operators) and travel agencies (both online and offline). The company acts both as a worldwide network connecting travel providers and travel agencies through a highly effective processing platform for the distribution of travel products and services (through our Distribution business), and as a provider of a comprehensive portfolio of IT solutions which automate certain mission-critical business processes, such as reservations, inventory management and operations for travel providers (through our IT solutions business).

- Tenzo
Participated · Series A · Apr 2026
Tenzo provides a PerformanceOps platform for hospitality operators that offers real-time visibility across sales, labour, inventory, and operations rather than relying on backward-looking reports. The company works with more than 250 customers and integrates with roughly 100 technology partners across the hospitality stack. Reported customer outcomes include a 15% increase in labour productivity, an 80% reduction in food waste, and 75% less time spent compiling reports. Over the past year Tenzo has added new brands, strengthened its presence in hotels, and pursued further expansion in the US. The business announced a $5M first close of a Series A extension led by Edge.vc and noted the appointment of Jane O’Riordan as Chair. The company framed the funding as supporting continued growth and international expansion.
- enclaive
Led · Seed · Feb 2026
enclaive develops a confidential computing platform that lets organisations deploy applications inside secure enclaves across multiple clouds, ensuring data remains shielded even while it is being processed. The vendor-agnostic architecture supports Kubernetes clusters, virtual machines, and AI workloads without requiring any modifications to existing code, tools, or workflows. By removing the need to fully trust cloud providers, the company targets highly regulated sectors such as finance, healthcare, public services, critical infrastructure, and AI model deployment. enclaive positions its technology as a response to growing AI adoption, stricter data-protection regulations, and increasingly sophisticated cyber threats. The platform’s modular design aims to simplify deployment and give enterprises granular operational control. Fueled by its recent seed financing, the company plans to accelerate commercial growth, advance development of its eMCP platform, enlarge its engineering and operations teams, and begin international expansion.
- Skycore Semiconductors
Led · Seed · Nov 2025
Skycore Semiconductors is a Denmark-based fabless chipmaker focused on silicon-validated Power Integrated Circuit technology designed to meet the extreme power density and efficiency requirements of emerging 800V high-voltage direct current (HVDC) architectures in AI data centres. Its platform delivers compact, flat-form-factor solutions that address a critical bottleneck in scaling AI infrastructure power systems. The company controls six patent families underpinning its technology and is currently preparing its first commercial products. An eight-person team is collaborating with strategic partners to bring these solutions to market and gradually expand headcount. Skycore envisions extending its leadership in Power ICs beyond AI facilities to other high-power applications requiring similar voltage ranges. To date, the startup has raised €5 million in seed financing to support product development and initial go-to-market efforts.
- Farang
Led · Seed · Aug 2025
Farang has built a new LLM architecture that internally comprehends a complete response before translating it into text, an approach the company says mimics human thinking and differs from token-by-token prediction. The architecture performs internal reasoning through non-textual mechanisms, which Farang claims yields more coherent answers while sharply reducing computational demands—about twenty-five times less compute in current testing. The company is focusing initially on specialised domain models where existing assistants underperform, with a first product focus on React programming to deliver more optimized and iterative code. Farang also targets niche medical fields and internal company tools, and its models can be deployed on-premises to preserve data privacy for healthcare, legal, and financial firms. Founder Emil Romanus says the plan is to prove the architecture in specialised domains and then scale toward broader AI applications. The recent funding will be used to scale proof-of-concept models and buy compute to train and fine-tune models for programming and medical use cases.
- Fiber Elements
Led · Seed · Jul 2025
Fiber Elements has developed fully automated manufacturing technology for three-dimensional basalt fiber structures as a sustainable alternative to steel-reinforced concrete. The company’s mineral composites are described as three times stronger than steel and two-thirds lighter, and basalt fibers resist corrosion and are fully recyclable. Its solution can cut CO2 emissions by up to 70% compared with traditional steel reinforcement. Fiber Elements has completed pilot projects, is serving five customers, and holds one granted patent with several additional applications submitted in 2025. The startup collaborates with Technical University of Leoben, BOKU Vienna, and TU Wien and plans AI-driven optimisation of its digital workflow. With the new funding it intends to industrialise production, deploy on-site "nano-factories," and double its team from 10 to 20 employees by year-end.
