50 Partners

What 50 Partners does

50 Partners Gestion SAS is a Paris-based French startup accelerator and venture capital firm founded in 2012. The company operates four parallel accelerator programs covering Tech, Impact, Health, and Web3 verticals, selecting 6-8 startups per year from more than 2,000 applications (less than 1% acceptance rate). Its core product is structured acceleration: selected startups receive mentorship from 50 entrepreneur-partners who are founders of successful French companies (Dataiku, Aircall, Blablacar, Malt, Bankin, LebonCoin), access to 50 Friends (250+ corporate executives, VCs, and industry experts), free coworking at Le Loft in central Paris (capacity for 125 workstations), and 100+ annual events including workshops, conferences, and international study trips.

The firm is an AMF-regulated portfolio management company (license GP-20000037) and raises capital through FPCI (Fonds Professionnels de Capital Investissement) vehicles: 50 Partners Capital I (2014), II (2017), III (2021), Impact (Article 9 SFDR, 2021), Health (2024), and a forthcoming Capital IV. Subscriptions come from private investors, family offices, and corporate investors seeking exposure to accelerator-de-risked early-stage venture opportunities. The platform claims 150+ portfolio companies and a 100% portfolio funding rate.

Monetization comes from two streams: asset-management fees on FPCI AUM and potential carried interest on successful exits. In December 2025 the company diversified beyond fund management by launching Roostino, a wholly-owned performance marketing brand focused on sports and casino traffic in Tier-1 markets. The firm is led by founder Jérôme Masurel with Managing Directors Joanne Courbon and Lucile Brachet (Impact) and dedicated investment directors per vertical.
