With a presence across Europe, the United States, and the Middle East, Yaday’s new fund leverages deep technical know-how to target early-growth B2B startups and accelerate the widespread adoption of high-impact technologies.

To manage risk effectively, Yaday follows a diversified and co-investment-based strategy. Seventy percent of the fund will be directly invested in B2B scaleups that use AI as a core part of their business model.

The remaining 30 percent will go into partner funds to expand access to top-tier opportunities, create synergies, and support future funding rounds.

The capital will be deployed across Europe, the United States, and the Middle East, where Yaday already has a local presence through its offices in Paris, Miami, and Tel Aviv.

Yaday’s family-driven, entrepreneurial approach helps bring together a wider network of entrepreneurs, executives, and investors who believe in a venture capital model built on trust and shared resources.

According to Romain Afflelou, co-founder of Yaday: "What we’re building with Yaday is the natural continuation of ten years spent investing, supporting, and building bridges across ecosystems. The fund is powered by a truly unique international network.

Our role is to connect the most promising talents and projects with concrete growth levers — human, operational, strategic — even before talking about capital."

“This fund is the acceleration of a proven model, based on diversified approaches, geographic complementarity, and field-based network intelligence built on trust. Our strategy is grounded in both experience and the strength of our network. That’s what allows us today to support companies leveraging applied AI as a concrete driver of adoption in high-stakes sectors,” comments Pauline Bovyn, co-founder of Yaday.
