What makes us proud
Founders who chose to build across borders — with us.

Cyril de Queral
CEO & co-founder @Powell Software
“Europe has many strong technology companies, but too few true platforms. Our ambition has always been to build a European leader in the digital workplace space by bringing together strong local players who share the same product vision.”
Powell partnered with Cathay Capital to accelerate a European consolidation strategy in the digital workplace ecosystem.

Yves Garagnon
Co-CEO & co-founder @DiliTrust
“Building a European category leader requires scale across multiple markets. The opportunity in Europe is to build governance platforms that can truly serve institutions across the continent.”
DiliTrust is building a pan-European legal governance platform backed by Cathay Capital, Eurazeo and Sagard.

Maxime Bérard
CEO @Simpliciti
“The Smart Cities market in Europe is still highly fragmented. The next phase will be about bringing together the best local champions into a truly European offering.”
Simpliciti, backed by idiCo, is building a European platform for smart infrastructure and urban services.

03
THE WOULD-BE CONSOLIDATOR
The strategy is clear. The capital structure isn't.
