From Seed with Alven to GenZ social space leadership: insights from Yubo’s CEO and its investor
Ahead of Yubo’s announcement of its $47.5m Series C round, we sat down with Yubo‘s CEO Sacha Lazimi, and Alven Partner François Meteyer, to get their thoughts on Yubo, its exciting prospects for the future, and its journey since joining the Alven portfolio during its seed funding round.
Amsterdam-based Creative Fabrica, a social platform for crafters and designers, has raised $61M in growth capital to offer more resources for its community of 4 million creators. The round is led by Alven, joined by LionTree and TriplePoint with continued participation from Peak Capital, Felix Capital and FJ Labs. The funding will be used towards existing and new creator verticals, further build out of the platform’s designer network, expansion of creative generative AI toolset, and growing the team with senior talent globally.
