Deesup, the marketplace for the purchase and sale of design and second-hand furniture, has closed a new investment round of 1.4M euros. The second capital increase of the startup sees among the main investors the Alicrowd fund, LVenture Group, the Club degli Investitori, Doorway and LifeGate. Together with AZ ELTIF – ALIcrowd, the first venture capital ELTIF that also uses crowdfunding to search for investment companies, established by Azimut Investments SA and managed in delegation by Azimut Libera Impresa SGR SpA, in partnership with Mamacrowd, the most important Italian platform for investments in equity crowdfunding, among the lenders we find LVenture Group, which already in September 2019 had led, together with some business angels, the closure of the first round of investment of 300 thousand euros of Deesup, after launching the startup with the its LUISS EnLabs Acceleration Program.
The 1.4 million euro round, which provides for a loan of 300 thousand euro, the note specifies, will allow Deesup to pursue its international growth objectives, already started in 2019 following the closure of the first round. With the new funds, the startup will in fact work to consolidate its presence in the main countries in which it already operates, such as Italy, Germany, France and Benelux, to then expand and scale into new markets.
