What EuroQuity does

EuroQuity is a digital investment networking platform created and operated by Bpifrance, the French public investment bank, in partnership with Wallonie Entreprendre for Belgium. Founded in 2008 and headquartered in Maisons-Alfort, France, the platform connects startups, growth companies, investors (including business angels and institutional investors), and business support structures across Europe and Africa. Its core product is a free, web-based B2B platform that hosts company profiles, an Electronic Data Room for confidential fundraising documents, secure internal messaging, themed Communities (e.g., Access2EIC, BlueInvest, BAE Club), Labels as trust credentials, Pitch Events, and an Applications Library integrating third-party services such as crowdfunding platforms. A generative AI-based suggestion system built on Microsoft Azure OpenAI recommends connections between users by analyzing profile data.

The platform does not generate direct revenue; it is provided free of charge to all users and is funded by Bpifrance as part of its public economic development mandate. The go-to-market motion is community-led and product-led, with user acquisition driven by a network of 30+ partner organizations including the European Innovation Council (EIC), Business France, France Angels, EBAN, Invest EU Portal, Hellenic Development Bank, Attijariwafa Bank, AfricaGrow, and AFD. Authentication is handled through My Bpifrance Account, and the service is offered in French, English, and Dutch across www.euroquity.com and www.euroquity.be.

The platform's strategic positioning is that of public-sector ecosystem infrastructure rather than a commercial venture. Its growth is driven by geographic expansion (notably into Africa), the addition of themed Communities and Label programs, and deepening integration with EU institutions. Operating with 1-10 employees and reporting over 20,000 startups on the platform, EuroQuity functions as a matchmaking and deal-flow layer within Bpifrance's broader mandate to foster entrepreneurship and investment in France and Europe.

Direct peers

• Gust: Gust (formerly Angelsoft) is a deal-flow management platform purpose-built for angel investor networks, syndicates, and startup fundraising workflows. It mirrors EuroQuity's role in supporting angel-investor communities and providing data-room-style diligence tools.
• Dealroom.co: Dealroom is a European startup and investor intelligence platform providing deal flow, market intelligence, and connection services. It shares EuroQuity's European focus and serves as a parallel data/matchmaking platform for VCs, angels, and corporates.
• AngelList: AngelList is a leading US-based deal-flow and venture platform connecting startups with angel investors and venture funds. It is the closest direct competitor to EuroQuity in terms of core functionality (investor-startup matching, rolling funds, syndicates), though it operates a commercial model rather than as a public service.
• F6S: F6S is a global startup and investor network that connects founders with accelerators, investors, and grants. Like EuroQuity, it offers free profile creation, deal-flow discovery, and partnership matchmaking across geographies.
• EquityNet: EquityNet operates an online equity investment platform enabling startups to raise capital from angel and retail investors. It competes with EuroQuity in the online fundraising and deal-sourcing space, though it operates commercially in North America.

Broad incumbents

• LinkedIn: LinkedIn is the dominant professional networking platform increasingly used by investors and founders for deal sourcing, warm intros, and signal-driven discovery. Its scale and professional data represent a competitive adjacency to EuroQuity's investor-company matching value proposition.
• Crunchbase: Crunchbase is the leading global startup and investor data platform, offering company profiles, funding data, and market intelligence. While broader in scope and commercial in monetization, it overlaps with EuroQuity's role as a discovery and research layer for investors sourcing deal flow.

Emerging players

• SeedLegals: SeedLegals is a European startup platform that streamlines fundraising, legal documentation, and investor onboarding. It overlaps with EuroQuity on the startup-fundraising workflow, particularly for seed-stage European companies, though its focus leans toward legal/admin tooling.

Regional players

• SeedBlink: SeedBlink is a European equity-crowdfunding and deal-flow platform focused on Central and Eastern Europe. It competes with EuroQuity for European investor-startup matching but in a more commercial, transaction-oriented model.
• Wefunder: Wefunder is a leading US equity-crowdfunding platform enabling retail and angel investors to back startups. While focused on US regulation and retail investors, it overlaps with EuroQuity in core matchmaking between startups and capital providers.
