Big ticket boom: Explosion of investments over €3M in Impact.

The impact financing landscape is changing fast. Just a few years ago, we counted just fifteen or so funders ready to invest tickets in excess of €3 million. Today, that number has almost tripled to nearly 45 players. This spectacular growth has even prompted us to redefine our classification of funders in the mapping, creating two new categories: €3 to €5 million and over €5 million, whereas previously there was only one category for investments over €3 million.Several factors explain this significant increase. Many funds, traditionally positioned for Series B-C investments in traditional startups, have made the strategic choice to create vehicles specifically dedicated to impact companies. Among them are prestigious names such as Rothschild&Co, Daphni, Weinberg, Partech and Tikehau. At the same time, new players have emerged to fill the need for financing at this advanced stage of development, with structures such as Teampact Ventures and Epopée Gestion. It should be noted, however, that this dynamic has not been as marked in the pre-seed and seed segment, where the growth in the number of players remains more modest. This trend underscores the market's move towards more substantial financing, reflecting a genuine interest in supporting impact companies at more mature stages of development.
