Resumen del contexto y de los objetivos generales del proyecto

M&A activity over the past 20 years has shown a marked increasing trend hitting a $3.3tn record in 2018. Nevertheless, European SMEs struggle to raise equity financing. There is also a significant need in emerging areas to enable access to equity, and only 15% of M&A processes occur in these geographical areas.

Avances que van más allá del estado de la técnica e impacto potencial esperado (incluida la repercusión socioeconómica y las implicaciones sociales más amplias del proyecto hasta la fecha)

GRECA is at present beyond competitors in several fields. From the commercial point of view, GRECA supports the low-to-mid market (between €300k and €20M) corporate transactions, a segment that is currently uncovered. Concerning operative capabilities, GRECA is not only a fundraising platform, it is a process facilitator for transactions to make better decisions in a shorter time, more efficient and at lower costs. We have enhanced these features with state of the art technologies such as Machine Learning and Blockchain which will allow us to outperform the competition
