Digital transformation

Since Montefiore’s inception in 2005, we have put digital transformation at the heart of the strategic agenda of the companies we have invested in. We have achieved leap frog evolutions with companies such as Auto Escape, Homair Vacances, B&B, ISPS, BVA or more recently Interflora.

We have a unique cumulated internal expertise, complemented when needed by our ecosystem that we leverage for the benefit of the companies in which we invest to, according to their priorities:

Accelerate growth in digital sales channels

Develop innovative products or services enabled by the technology

Increase operational effectiveness

Reduce costs or working capital

Facilitate international roll-out

In our experience, even the most “traditional” businesses are not immune from threats and opportunities of digital transformation.

If you are considering partnering with an investor, its ability to address these challenges is essential.
