To initiate the systemic transformations that the economy and society need, we need a community of mind, heart and, above all, action. In the age of the impact revolution, venture capital can no longer be a solitary adventure.
Asterion federates a community of high-level operator angels from diverse backgrounds. Whether they are successful founders, heads of major groups or have unique expertise, the members of our community all share the same ambition: to lend a helping hand to those whose actions represent a potential tipping point for entire sectors of our economy, and this regardless of their investment capacity.
It's a matter of affinities, shared vision and key skills, mobilized in the right place at the right time: the Asterion team strives to maintain this perfect balance on a systematic basis. For each start-up, everything is consolidated in a special purpose vehicle (SPV), which simplifies governance and facilitates subsequent fund-raising.
There is no substitute for a relationship of trust between a founder and an angel.
To allow our investments to reach their full potential, we designed a multi-stage strategic support system:
Another original feature is that we encourage - and even encourage financially - our start-up founders to take part in regular coaching sessions.
Asterion brings together a very broad spectrum of the French entrepreneurial ecosystem. It would be impossible to present all our angels.
