Lanzame Capital prepares a €20M fund

Lanzame Capital, which had already been investing in technology start-ups for more than 3 years, has decided to take the leap and set up a venture capital company.

The new vehicle is expected to be ready by the end of 2016.

"Lánzame capital was created in 2012 as the first pledge fund in Spain and has already made 14 investments, including successful startups such as Kantox, Novicap and Arboribus"says Diego Gutierrez of Abra-invest.

Until now, Lánzame Capital has invested an average of around €100,000 in each project, but he estimates that with the new fund the investment ticket could rise to a range of between €125,000 and €200,000.

 

Endurance Partners creates a venture capital fund

 Endurance Partnershas just set up the venture capital management company Endurance Equity Partners with a capital of €125,000 and chaired by Pedro Picas de la Rosa.

Endurance specialises in taking control of companies with liquidity problems, with the aim of restructuring them and relaunching their activity. As well as the acquisition of production units of companies in insolvency proceedings. It carried out its first operation in the summer of 2013 with the purchase of the business of the Catalan children's fashion company Canada House, and in December last year, it bought the jewellery and watch chain Oro Vivo.
