Founded in 2024, Komvo provides a platform that centralizes the end-to-end flow for group restaurant bookings, covering search and comparison, attendee management, split payments, cancellation policies, and allergy records. The service is free for end users while Komvo charges restaurants a commission on reservations generated. By the time of the recent fundraise the company was working with more than 100 restaurants in Madrid and had both web and mobile app presence. Komvo emphasizes specialization in group bookings (events like corporate dinners or large family celebrations) rather than individual reservations. The startup plans to consolidate its position in Madrid before replicating its model in other Spanish cities. Komvo also joined mentorship programs (Lanzadera and Netmentora Madrid) to support its growth and operational scaling.

Finteca is an online mortgage platform with bank scoring that can approve mortgages with lenders in as little as 24 hours. It also operates Prohipotecas, a partner platform used by more than 2,500 real estate agents to accelerate sales and validate mortgage feasibility early. The company is integrated with 15 banking partners and names connections with Sabadell, EVO Bank, Liberbank and UCI, with plans to connect additional banks. Finteca has shown rapid growth—2,000 mortgage requests in 2019, 6,000 in 2020, and over 13,000 requests in the first half of 2021—and has managed more than €22 million in mortgages to date. Leadership includes cofounders Marc Torres and Silvia Escámez, with Escámez recently appointed CEO; the businesses were incubated at Nuclio VB. Finteca plans to use new funding to invest in technology and marketing, expand the team, consolidate nationally and launch a new platform soon. Finteca is a Barcelona-based fintech that provides a free mobile mortgage management app delivering 100% digitalised mortgage services. Through the app users can search, compare and request mortgages from multiple banks on their mobile device, with an emphasis on security and privacy. The service aims to inform, personalise, negotiate and obtain preferential conditions for customers and has agreements with 14 banks, earning commissions of 0.5%–1% of each mortgage principal. Finteca was founded in 2017 by Tor Jensen, Silvia Escamez, Marc Torres and Carlos Blanco and received an initial investment of €265,000 at launch to develop technology, marketing and working capital. The company closed the year with sales of €350,000 and reports a 3% mortgage market share. It aligns with banks' digital multichannel strategies and has implemented a B2B model for the short and medium term while targeting younger users with a flexible, user-friendly service. Finteca offers a mobile-first mortgage advisory service and an app that enables users to search, compare and obtain mortgages from many banks. The company also operates a B2B line called Prohipotecas, which has closed agreements with more than 200 real estate agencies and marketplaces. Finteca was founded in 2018 by Carlos Blanco and is led by CEO Tor Jensen, a former UBS and Goldman Sachs executive. The startup is based in Pier01 in Barcelona and works with banks such as Sabadell, Bankinter, Ibercaja, Kutxa Bank and recently added Bankia as a commercial agent. Financially, Finteca is finalizing a €700K bridge round and has already secured half of that amount; it also received €200K from the Instituto Catalán de Finanzas. The company plans to launch a new funding round later in the year to begin international expansion. Finteca is presented as the first 100% mobile mortgage assistant in Spain, launched with support from Nuclio Venture Builder. The app enables users to search, compare and find an ideal mortgage across as many banks as they wish, from the security and privacy of their mobile devices, and is offered free. Nuclio described Finteca as the fifth startup incubated within its venture builder program. The founders are Carlos Avendaño and Kuan‑Neng Foo, who met during the second Nuclio Weekend. Nuclio said Finteca will work with large banks to reinvent the mortgage contracting process, aiming to reduce operating costs for lenders and save time and uncertainty for customers. The article frames the launch against a Spanish market rebound, noting more than 400,000 mortgages were signed in 2017.
