Investment portfolio

  • Hectarea.io

    Participated · Equity · Apr 2026

    Founded in 2022 by Paul Rodrigues and Adime Amoukou, Hectarea.io provides retail investors access to agricultural land investments and distributes rental income paid by producers. The platform has attracted €4.5 million of community investment to date and has financed 50 agricultural projects across France. It offers low entry tickets starting at €100 to broaden access to this tangible asset class. Hectarea has also launched Place des Terres, a dedicated service for farmland transmission to simplify buying, selling and leasing for farmers. The company participated in the makesense incubator in 2023 and recently raised €1.5 million from INVESS ILE-DE-FRANCE Amorçage, Kiss Studio, albo and angel investors. Hectarea plans to use the funding to scale its product, support new farmer installations, and finance sustainable agricultural projects.

  • Bon Air Club

    Participated · Equity · Dec 2025

    Bon Air Club positions itself as a four-season accommodation concept that bridges camping’s immersion in nature with the amenities of an urban hotel. Its first 10-hectare resort, slated to open in the Alpes Mancelles (Sarthe) in July, will feature 40 wood lodges built by Vendée manufacturer Cistébois and designed to host two to eight guests. The sites emphasize an ‘outdoor spirit,’ offering activities such as trail running, hiking, canoeing and tree-top adventure courses, and aim to attract families, groups of friends and corporate seminar clients. Founded by Ségolène Desplanques with partners Grégory Thibord and Pierre-Yves Le Gal, the company emerged from the Nantes start-up studio Imagination Machine. Looking ahead, management is already in exclusive talks for a second location and targets opening four to six resorts in France and neighboring countries by 2030. The recent €7 million funding enables Bon Air Club to acquire its first property and finance lodge construction, setting the stage for additional capital needs as new sites are developed.
