Aglaé Ventures

Investor profile | Builders Republic

About

Aglaé Ventures is the technology investment firm of Groupe Arnault, the family holding of Bernard Arnault (controlling shareholder of LVMH). While it benefits from the prestige and network of the world's largest luxury group, Aglaé is strictly a financial tech investor, not a corporate strategic fund. They act as a bridge between the European and American ecosystems, with a track record that rivals the best Silicon Valley firms. Their model is unique: they combine the infinite time horizon of a Family Office (permanent capital) with the rigor and ambition of a Tier-1 Venture Capital firm. They are known for backing global category definers early on.
