Période du rapport: 2019-12-01 au 2020-03-31

Résumé du contexte et des objectifs généraux du projet

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.

• Deal-flow generation, screening, and matching qualified and curated list
• Peer-to-peer communication and document exchange
• Untapping behavioural factors in the investor's decision-making process
• Supporting post-deal processes regarding portfolio monitoring, value evolution and info exchange

Progrès au-delà de l’état des connaissances et impact potentiel prévu (y compris l’impact socio-économique et les conséquences sociétales plus larges du projet jusqu’à présent)

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
