UNEXO

UNEXO is an investment fund and management company within the Crédit Agricole Group, providing equity and debt financing to business leaders and entrepreneurs in France's Greater West (Grand Ouest). Its remit spans venture, growth and other forms of financing, including direct investments in technology startups, alongside established businesses across a broad portfolio. The firm positions itself as a partner around the ambitions of the companies it backs rather than as a provider of capital alone.

The investment proposition is organised across four instruments. Innovation capital supplies equity financing for innovation-led companies; private equity investment supports businesses at significant development stages; private debt is directed at commercial acceleration, growth, reorganisation and business transmission; and mezzanine debt offers a hybrid form of financing for growth, reorganisation and transmission. The combination of equity and quasi-debt products allows UNEXO to accompany companies across multiple stages of their development within a single regional platform.

UNEXO's stated commitments include keeping decision-making centres and jobs rooted in local communities and contributing to regional economic momentum and the long-term development of the organisations it supports. The firm cites complementary team expertise as central to how it works with company leadership. Further detail is available at unexo.fr.
