YADAY
YADAY is a venture capital platform built from the Afflelou Family Office, investing pre-seed to pre-IPO in technology and healthcare via direct investments and fund positions.
YADAY is a venture capital platform built from the Afflelou Family Office, founded in 2016 and investing in technology and healthcare companies. Its investment arm, Yaday Capital, makes direct investments and takes fund positions across a wide span of stages, from pre-seed to pre-IPO, with a stated focus on identifying the next category leaders in artificial intelligence. The family office behind the platform has backed more than 140 companies and invested in 17 funds.
The stated sector coverage is broad but concentrated on the technology stack and its applications: AI infrastructure, artificial intelligence, developer platforms, cybersecurity, defence and space, data, energy, robotics, smart devices and healthcare. Investments are made both directly and through commitments to other funds, giving the platform exposure across vintages and stages rather than a single point in the venture cycle.
Alongside the fund, YADAY operates Yaday Club, an investor community that connects family offices, entrepreneurs, operators and executives. The club provides co-investment opportunities and facilitates founder meetings, introductions, corporate connections and pilots - a value-creation model that leans on network access as much as capital.
The platform has a presence in Paris, Luxembourg, Tel Aviv and Miami, with activity spanning Europe, the United States and Israel.
