augmentum Augmentum Fintech, UK’s publicly listed investment company focusing on the FinTech sector, and Tikehau Capital, the global alternative asset manager, announced an enhanced partnership to promote further growth in the burgeoning European FinTech sector.

Tim Levene, CEO of Augmentum Fintech commented: “France, like the UK, has seen a step-change in digital adoption because of Covid-19, and Paris, like London, is becoming a major focus for fintech investment. Tikehau Capital, headquartered in Paris, is one of Europe’s most entrepreneurial and innovative alternative asset managers and we look forward to working more closely with them over the coming years”.

The enhanced relationship between the two companies also sees Augmentum declare its intention to establish a presence in mainland Europe. From Paris, Augmentum will leverage Tikehau Capital’s global footprint to support its significant pan-European investment pipeline. Recent investments by Augmentum include Epsor, an employee savings and retirement solution based in France; Tesseract, a digital asset innovator focusing on institutional brokerage and asset management based in Finland; and Grover, a start-up offering a rental service for consumer electronics in Germany.

Antoine Flamarion and Mathieu Chabran, co-founders of Tikehau Capital, added: “We have known Tim Levene and the Augmentum team for several years and are delighted to further strengthen our partnership, combining our unique investment expertise and deep European experience. Beyond our financial investment, this partnership will also see Augmentum benefit from Tikehau Capital’s pan-European network and footprint, as well as our expertise in the European fintech sector where we continue to see positive market dynamics.”
