Investment thesis
Extension Fund positions itself as a venture debt pioneer in Spain, operating a hybrid debt fund that finances startups via convertible notes and venture debt. It backs ambitious founders across Spain from pre-seed through Series B, focusing on fintech, insurtech, proptech, cleantech and e-commerce. The convertible note offering is a short-term financing designed to convert into equity in a future round, while venture debt provides more flexible terms than traditional financing for venture-backed companies. Beyond capital, the team provides strategic support, business development connections and structuring of new financing with national and international partners, drawing on the operators' experience founding and backing companies.
