VENTURE CAPITAL: INITIAL INVESTMENTS FOR THE TECHSHOP €1,2M TO TILEDESK AND HLPY

▤ Summary

Milan, 18 May 2022 Two months after completing the first closing for the Techshop Primo fund, the SGR founded by Aurelio Mezzotero and Gianluca DAgostino announces two seed rounds of 600.000 each in Tiledesk and hlpy, two Italian software companies which have developed disruptive technologies, both with a huge potential of international expansion.This double round accelerates the activity of the Fund, which, after receiving support from CDP Venture Capital and other important individual investors, is working on a further expansion of the raise up to the 50M mark. Tiledesks approach is based on an integrated full-stack architecture combined with a modular logic; such architecture allows the enterprises to choose whether to adopt the entire service suite or to pick single modules, easily pluggable with third-party software and solutions.hlpy Srl, founded in 2020 in Milan, was born out of an idea of Valerio Chiaronzi, Graziano Cavallo and Enrico Noseda. hlpy started operations in Italy by sealing agreements with major players in the insurance vertical, in the rental sector and with car manufacturers; by the end of 2022, it will have managed over 40,000 assistance missions. Tiledesk and hlpy are two startups pretty unique in their value proposition, with well-focused software products, in businesses undergoing strong technological and behavioural changes, such as in the corporate customer service, or anchored to archaic service models, as in the case of roadside assistance.Andrea Sponziello, Tiledesk CEO, explained: The investment by Techshop is an important milestone for us to hit the goals set ever since the beginning, in the journey to become a key player in the customer messaging and inbound marketing space. We firmly believe that Gianluca and Aurelios mentorship will be instrumental in designing and executing a sustainable growth strategy.hlpy CEO Valerio Chiaronzi commented We are extremely happy to have an investor like The Techshop seating now beside us.
