Yeah, so they're a French startup, some cool guys who, all PhD students, who were just looking, they built a self-learning algorithm that they think will revolutionize the hedge fund industry.

One of the things we need to be quite clear about in our conversation is that the teams we work with are usually very early stage.

They are usually...

early stage, pre-seed.

So they come to us with a product that is usually not ready for launch yet.

And they use a program to validate the proposition, to do all the customer discovery and all the kind of the least startup essentials that they need to do to be able to actually do something with it.

So the best thing we can expect for the program to deliver is that they leave the program with a validated proposition and then they go on and start developing

selling it either to the consumers or launch it or whatever it is that they do in their journey.

No, since 2014, we've got about 60 companies.

60?

That's the fintech focus, yeah.

Um...

I think we need to go back into this.

We don't really look at this as an investment piece.

The company that raised more money is a company called Buzzmove, which is a team that we had in our InsurTech program in London last year.

Buzzmove?

Buzzmove, yeah.

They raised $8 million US.

And what do they do?

They provide very accurate data for content insurance, for home insurance, for lenders, sorry, for insurers.
