FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Once we receive your project, BStartup’s investment team will analyze it. If we believe it can be suitable for investment by BStartup, we will contact your team to meet you and get to know the company better. If BStartup decides to invest in the project, you will present it to the Investment Committee, which is held monthly. If the committee approves the investment, the entire investment process will begin at this point.

It is very important that you are attended by one of our offices that specialize in startups, whose managers know the operation and particular features of the business models of a startup, different from those of a traditional company. Find your nearest BStartup office here and come and meet us.

The main difference is that, in the case of investment, BStartup will enter as an investment partner in your start-up taking an equity percentage of your capital and supporting you with additional services.

If we’re talking about financing, we will finance your start-up through bank debt (specialized banking product such as loan, credit, leasing, renting, factoring, reverse factoring…), which you will have to pay back in the established terms plus an established interest rate; in this case, we do not enter into the capital of your company.

Our core business is banking services, including financing. Since the creation of BStartup, startup financing has been a priority, which is why a specific risk circuit for startups was created. All funding requests for startups are worked on by managers and risk analysts who specialize in startups, who understand how startups work and know how to interpret the business plans of a startup.

In addition, we also invest in the capital of some startups.

Our equity investment targets early-stage digital and technology companies, with strong growth potential and scalable and innovative business models. Additionally, we can make follow-on investments in our portfolio startups. We have no sector preferences, although we have launched two verticals: BStartupHealth and BStartupGreen (to invest in startups focused on environmental sustainability).

The stake that BStartup10 takes depends on the post-money value once the investment round is closed, taking into account that the investment we make is between €100,000 and €150,000.

Percentage holding = €100,000-€150,000 post-money
