• Karmen — Karmen offers revenue-based financial solutions such as venture capital and loans to accelerate business growth for SaaS companies.
• Novicap — NoviCap was started in 2014 with a mission to make invoice finance universal and effortless.The invoice finance industry has been around for a long time and has rightly gained a reputation for predatory legal and commercial practices. Since they started NoviCap, it has become clear to us that traditional invoice finance firms make their productsound needlessly complex in order to charge higher rates and confusing fees.The root cause for this widespread industry behaviour is systemic as factoring firms have a lot of overhead costs. They do not leverage technology to offer online services and rely on expensive field sales to gain clients. Many are so low-tech that they run their business entirely on excel spreadsheets. The few firms that use software are using expensive legacy systems. This inefficient cost structure causes traditional firms to overcharge their customers and to save money in customer service.This is why in 2014 they started NoviCap and have built their technology from the ground up with the customer in mind. The end result is an invoice finance facility where every step is easy, fast and transparent. You can experience this difference with their instant pricing, fast onboarding, rapid turnaround, simple fee structure and ultimately much lower rates. Since their technology eliminated so much inefficiencies it has become truly easy to use. They are able to give customers a simple 'push for cash' button in their existing invoicing software.

ToothPic was founded by a team of 4 researchers and professors from Politecnico di Torino, and in 2018 received a seed from VV3TT, an Italian Venture Capital fund dedicated to Technology Transfer from public research. ToothPic technology is protected by 4 patents, and won several prizes in competitions dedicated to startups and twice the Seal of Excellence issued by the European Commission. ToothPic’s target is the market of authentication systems. Its technology recognizes the unique pattern of invisible imperfections that characterize smartphone cameras to protect cryptographic keys stored on devices, that are commonly used for user authentication, digital signature, blockchain related applications. The additional layer of security represented by this random unclonable feature can be obtained with no additional hardware and related costs. A Software Development Kit has been developed for Android and iOS. It can be integrated into existing third-party apps and authentication systems, allowing the device possession verification by (de)obfuscating asymmetric cryptographic keys. Users’ credentials are not stored in a centralized service provider server - representing a single point of failure exploitable by an attacker, but they are distributed on users’ devices. Hence, an adversary willing to violate those credentials should target each single user device, facilitating for service providers the migration from an on premises architecture to the cloud, because they don’t need to manage sensitive users credentials, but only their public key.
