Founded in 2013 by Clara Gaymard and Gonzague de Blignières, RAISE is a trailblazer in sustainable finance, integrating investment and innovation through a unique platform. Our mission-driven approach revolves around sharing success, supported by an endowment and philanthropic accelerator. RAISE operates four investment strategies: RAISE Investissement for mid-cap private equity in French SMEs, RAISE Ventures for early-stage VC from preseed to Series B, RAISE REIM for value-add real estate in Paris, and RAISE Impact for European growth with a purpose. RaiseLab fosters open innovation through strategic consulting, while Domaine La Plume serves as a hub for executive inspiration and reflection. RAISESHERPAS, our philanthropic accelerator, supports startups with over €60 million, with investment teams donating 50% of profit-sharing to the RAISESHERPAS Endowment Fund, blending profitability with generosity.
