Crescenta Rides the €3.5 Million Wave – Spain’s Biggest Pre‑Seed In the FinTech Sea
Picture this: a fresh‑out‑of‑the‑oven digital fund manager in Spain has just blown the lid off its pre‑seed round, adding a whopping €2 million on top of the €1.5 million that had already been pledged last July. The headline number? €3.5 million – the largest pre‑seed cash injection the country has ever seen in the fintech arena.
Who’s Throwing the Money
- KFund – seasoned investor, proven track record

Andir Michelena has been quick to wax poetic about Crescenta, saying: “We’re stepping into a company that’s supercharged to turn the private‑equity scene on its head. A stellar team, a project packed with cutting‑edge tech, and a mission to go from pioneers to pioneers‑leaders.”
Fuel for Growth – Building the Dream Team
The fresh windfall will power up Crescenta’s squad, casting a spotlight on senior hires in Investment, Marketing, and Investor Relations. CEO Ramiro Iglesias kissed the moment: “Adding these strategic powerhouses is essential to double our team in 2024 and roll out new hires in Operations, Marketing, and Investor Relations in the first quarter alone.”
