About Holded

Holded is a Spanish startup that has developed the first ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) for small businesses that allows business owners to manage their accounting, invoicing, customer management (CRM), project management and inventory from a single platform.

In addition, Holded offers multiple integrations that automate a multitude of transactions and processes including; payment processing, bank statement reconciliation or sales data synchronisation with e-commerce platforms such as Amazon, Shopify or Prestashop.

The platform automates more than 50% of the administrative tasks that a small business needs to manage. For example, it generates 95% of accounting entries automatically, through invoices issued and through automatic synchronisation with banks. Since the launch of the first version of the product a year ago, Holded has acquired more than 10,000 users with limited resources.

Based in Barcelona, Holded was founded in 2016 by Bernat Ripoll and Javi Fondevila. Since then, the Catalan company has received funding from Nauta Capital, several Business Angels and seed funds.

Holded, a Spanish startup that has developed management software for SMEs, has closed an investment round in which it has raised a total of $1.6M from Nauta Capital, a pan-European venture capital firm that invests in early-stage technology companies.

The funds raised in this round will be used for the development, commercialisation and internationalisation of Holded's products.

Technology Data Analytics
for M&A
Advanced data anlytics is a weapon". Intelfin is an artificial intelligence tool we use for investing and creating value in SMEs through competitive analytics and the enterprise environment.

IntelFin consists of a cognitive system, which, through the application of advanced analytical technologies, facilitates the automation of investment and financing decisions in the field of non-listed companies and especially SMEs in high-growth sectors.

The information related to these companies is characterized by their lack of transparency and heterogeneity; thus, it is necessary to develop an advanced analysis which is as much predictive as prescriptive and is developed in a natural language custom, suitable to obtain greater clarity and knowledge of the investment scope.

The IntelFin system focuses especially on analyzing the variables that define and influence the competitive environment of a sector and the positioning of a company, analyzing their influence on future value creation. Therefore, IntelFin supports strategic decision-making to senior management by resolving questions such as:

¿What are my competitors' priorities, strategies and expansion plans? Who's my competition? Which competitor is most likely to grow at a higher rate?
Which areas of activity/business models will receive the most investment? Which sectors are most attractive to investors?
Which companies are going to experience the most growth in the near future? Which companies are most likely to receive investment or be acquired?
Training Methodology
We have developed training programs in an innovative set-up which guarantees our teams the acquisition of technical competences both in the field of corporate finance and in the field of psychology, that is much needed when it comes to negotiation processes.

We have a culture of continuous improvement of our processes, closely related to the use of information systems that allow the enhancement of internal communication between our teams, as well as external communication with our customers. Hence, we extend best practices identified internally in an efficient and rapid manner among our members.
