According to the company, the Joinup mobility platform closed 2025 with a turnover of more than €22 million, up 15.7% from the €19 million achieved in 2024. After surpassing 1,000 active accounts on its platform this year, Joinup set a goal to reach €26 million in turnover by 2026.

The company’s growth is also reflected in its expanding team. In 2025, the team grew by 15% to strengthen strategic areas such as technology, operations, and customer service. This expansion supports the company’s growth with a solid organizational structure. Looking ahead to 2026, Joinup is developing new services to integrate into its corporate application. The company aims to continue expanding its mobility ecosystem and strengthening its comprehensive offerings for businesses.

“2025 was a great year. We have demonstrated our ability to grow while maintaining strategic consistency. Our goal now is to continue expanding our services and strengthening our position as a leader in sustainable corporate mobility in Spain. We want companies to know that we share their values and are committed to their success. Their challenges are our challenges,” said Elena Peyró, CEO and co-founder of Joinup.

MORE BUSINESS, LESS FOOTPRINT Over the last five years, companies using the Joinup platform have prevented the emission of 2,099 tons of CO2, equivalent to 357 trips around the Earth. In 2025, 87.3% of assigned vehicles were ECO vehicles, 20.6% of which were fully electric globally.

Thanks to the high sustainability level of its network, the company prioritizes sending ECO or electric vehicles, even when users request conventional taxis. This raises the environmental standard of the service without transferring complexity to customers. This commitment is reflected in the expansion of its charging network, which now exceeds 15,000 points in Spain. This allows companies to electrify their fleets and manage their consumption and emissions with one tool. Users can recharge with the main operators through a single application.

This growth is not only evident in the corporate sphere. From 2021 to 2025, Joinup experienced a 29% increase in app usage outside of professional settings. The company maintains an average waiting time of less than five minutes for immediate services and a cancellation rate by taxi drivers of less than 1%.

This transaction is a significant milestone, as it attracted major traditional banking entities to the company’s capital. Bankinter and Banco Sabadell have joined Demium as main investors. The group is also supported by existing partners, including TheVentureCity and Wayra, the corporate venture capital arm of Telefónica, as well as other business angels.

This strong combination of venture capital, banking, and corporate investment vehicles provides solid support for Devengo’s value proposition in the competitive European payments landscape.

CEO and co-founder Fernando Cabello-Astolfi highlighted the importance of this support: “Banks entering Devengo’s capital is a clear sign of the strength of our value proposition and strengthens the solidity of our capital structure.”

The accrual model, based on an API-first approach, has become the reference infrastructure for offering instant, automated, and intelligent A2A payments. Fintech technology is already being implemented in various expanding sectors, including insurance, financing, online gaming, real estate, e-commerce, and services.

A key differentiating factor is its direct technical connection with the Iberpay clearinghouse. This eliminates dependence on traditional banking intermediaries, providing customers with greater efficiency, control, security, and scalability in their payment transactions.

Andrés Dancausa, General Partner at TheVentureCity, expressed confidence in the company’s future: “Devengo has everything it needs to lead instant account-to-account payments in the SEPA zone and become a key player in modernizing the European payments infrastructure. Their API-first approach, understanding of the needs of modern businesses, and ability to execute position them as a natural partner to build the future of instant payments.”

With the funds raised, the company plans to accelerate its expansion across the SEPA (Single European Payments Area) zone to meet the growing demand for instant payments across the continent. Additionally, Devengo plans to facilitate the early adoption of next-generation payment protocols, such as the request to pay and instant international transfers, to stay at the forefront of regulatory and technological trends in the sector.

Rauda, a platform of AI agents purpose-built for customer support, has raised €2.4 million to advance its voice capabilities and accelerate the automation of complex support use cases while improving end-customer satisfaction. With this round, Rauda’s total funding has reached €3.3 million since launch.

‍

The round was led by JME Ventures. Bonsai Partners joined as a new investor, while existing investors Demium Capital, Fides Capital, and Juanjo Mostazo increased their support.

Where is Rauda today

Rauda is partnering with leading companies to deploy high-quality support agents and is building a best-in-class AI platform that includes evaluation suites, automated regression testing, and a fully controllable AI voice technology. The system is designed for deep integrations with client systems, enabling end-to-end automation with measurable quality and customer satisfaction.

‍

Over the last 18 months, Rauda has grown from 4 to 20 employees, with its main hub in Madrid, and is building AI agents with leading companies across Insurance, Health, Retail, and Digital Services.

“Most customer service interactions happen by voice. This round moves us closer to a world where AI agents can resolve complex cases across any channel, delivering a step-change in our customers’ productivity,” Ion Cuervas-Mons, CEO of Rauda.

“We invested in Rauda because customer service is still mostly voice, yet the tools around it are decades old. AI voice agents flip that dynamic, unlocking end-to-end automation, measurable productivity gains, and better customer experiences. Ion and the team are building the platform that incumbents can’t, and the market is wide open.” Ivan Landabaso, Partner at JME Ventures

“Rauda has become a critical partner for companies tackling customer support at scale. By leveraging AI to automate complex tasks and adapt to specific needs, they’re driving meaningful gains in productivity, resolution rates, and customer satisfaction. We’re excited to back Rauda as they deepen integrations and expand their capabilities,” Albert Llobet, Bonsai Partners.

Indexa Capital Group, parent company of Indexa Capital Agencia de Valores, Indexa Caravel, and Bewater Asset Management SGEIC, closed last year with €6.6 million in revenue and €760,000 in profits. Listed on the BME Growth market, the company generates 97% of its revenue through its securities agency. This agency ranks eighth among the largest Spanish entities in terms of portfolio management. The volume of assets under management or advisement grew by 51% in 2024, reaching €3.033 billion.

In December 2024, Indexa Capital Group recorded a record-breaking month of net capital inflows, surpassing €100 million for the first time.

In terms of customer numbers, the company closed the year with 96,000 (+39%) and last month exceeded the 100,000 mark, with an average investment of €31,100.

Indexa specializes in diversified, low-cost investment fund portfolios. The customer gives a mandate to their securities agency to build that portfolio, with products from BlackRock, Vanguard, Amundi, etc., and to rebalance it to maintain the agreed asset allocation.

The company, which was founded by François Derbaix, Unai Ansejo, and Ramón Blanco, also markets investment funds, pension plans, simplified plans for the self-employed, and life insurance.

At the press conference, Derbaix explained that they are “very satisfied with the results obtained” and confident they will continue to grow organically, relying on word of mouth — “how most of our customers come to us” — and the $1.8 million they invest in advertising and marketing.

From the start of its activity in 2015 to December 2024, the cumulative return on Indexa’s average portfolio is 90%, equivalent to an annualized return of 7.4%. This figure far exceeds the average return of comparable investment funds in Spain during the same period.

The group owns Bewater Asset Management SGEIC, an investment fund manager for unlisted companies with €19 million in assets under management, as well as a subsidiary in France called Indexa Caravel.
