Profile

Hi inov is a European B2B fund built by entrepreneurs for entrepreneurs. Based in Paris, Lyon, and Munich, we invest from Seed to Series B in high-growth startups developing tools that drive productivity, resilience, and better management of technical infrastructure. As lead investor, we support innovative companies shaping the future of services and industry.

Our highly experienced investment and operating partner team will guide you from your early days to becoming an industry leader. Beyond capital, we provide hands-on support in scaling B2B software, structuring sales teams and processes, and optimizing go-to-market strategies—including enterprise sales and SaaS growth best practices. We leverage deep expertise in international expansion, helping startups scale across Europe and successfully enter the US market, as we’ve done for multiple portfolio companies.

Backed by a powerful international network of 100+ LPs, entrepreneurs and institutional investors, as well as the Dentressangle investment holding, we connect founders to potential clients, strategic partners, and experienced advisors across all industries.

Whether you need operational guidance, business development, or insights on external growth, we offer the expertise and network to accelerate your success.

Our Tech B2B investment strategy is driven by the structural challenges reshaping industries such as the ecological transition, IT efficiency and infrastructure resilience, the future of work, and the AI revolution.

We invest in startups that help organizations become more productive, resilient, and better manage their technical infrastructure.

We see compliance as a competitive advantage for European software providers. Companies that deeply understand regulatory frameworks can build structural market barriers, particularly in ESG, cybersecurity, and regulatory compliance.

Hi inov SAS is a management company approved by the French Financial Markets Authority (AMF), under number GP-13000007.
