Ghent-based Donna raises €1.5 million to be the AI assistant for sales reps on the go
Summary
This pre-seed funding will help the Belgian serial entrepreneurs behind Donna to attract new talent and further accelerate its ambitious rollout in the EU and US. Xander previously served as Team Lead within Belgian-based unicorn Deliverect, and Lander worked at StarApps, which has produced successful startups like Realo and Bizzy. Processing a meeting takes an average of 20 minutes, time that could be better spent on selling,” said Jonas Deprez, co-CEO and co-founder of Donna. The AI startup, founded late last year, already has 200 active users and has attracted interest from leading companies in the foodservice industry, business services, real estate, construction sectors, and some growth capital funds. “This reduces the administrative hassle after each sales interaction, giving salespeople more time to sell,” added Nicolas Christiaen, co-CEO and co-founder of Donna.
