Alven

À propos

Alven is the historical "Heavyweight" of the French Series A landscape. Founded in 2000 by Guillaume Aubin and Charles Letourneur, it is one of the few fully independent firms (not backed by a bank or insurance parent) that has remained at the top for over 20 years. Alven is known for its extreme consistency and its ability to spot category-defining leaders very early. They position themselves as "Heart-led" investors, emphasizing long-term support for ambitious entrepreneurs.
