CTRL+ALT+CREATE

For startups

Building a company, inside an ecosystem that carries it.

Applications open on 21 September 2026 for London, Paris, Tunis, Doha and Diamniadio.

Founders who join Ctrl+Alt+Create get more than capital: operating teams from day one, shared sector platforms, access to the group's markets and clients, and a physical base in our hubs.

What you get

The advantages you would not have alone

Capital and structure

Funding, legal structuring, governance and financial engineering, handled by teams who have done it dozens of times.

Operating teams

Product, engineering, marketing, sales, finance and people, available immediately. You focus on the market, the platform handles the rest.

Proven methods

Proprietary, industrialised creation playbooks: ideation, market validation, structuring, funding and scaling.

Market access

The group's sector expertise, clients and partners in finance, technology, education, media, real estate and energy, activated from day one.

A physical base

Work from the Ctrl+Alt+Create hubs in eight cities, with the same service floor everywhere.

Data-led steering

Metrics, product maturity, traction and governance tracked on shared dashboards, with AI-assisted prioritisation and resource allocation.

Our offer

100,000 euros of services, available from day one

Every company joining the ecosystem receives 100,000 euros of services converted into tokens, to spend freely across the group's shared services.

No cash committed

Services come from the group's support structures. Your cash stays focused on the market.

No extra dilution

Tokens come with the agreement itself. They are never converted into equity.

A growing catalogue

The service catalogue expands as the ecosystem grows.

The journey

Six stages, and the resources that come into play at each one

You do not arrive alone and you do not move forward alone. At every stage a team from the startup studio in your field works alongside you, and the group's platforms come into play as the venture takes shape.

  1. 01

    Explore

    Frame the opportunity

    The team of the startup studio in your field frames the problem, the user and the market with you. You inherit everything the group has learned in that sector.

    • A studio pair: a sector operator and a venture builder
    • Access to the domain reference: regulation, players, markets, lessons from companies already launched
    • The group's creation methods, proven across more than seventy companies
    • An opportunity review with the studio committee
  2. 02

    Validate

    Meet reality

    We test the assumptions that matter together, with real users and real customers. The group opens its sector network so those tests move fast.

    • Introductions to the group's clients and partners in your sector
    • User interviews and field tests run by the studio team
    • Market analysis and competitive watch supported by Quixx.ai
    • A first sizing of the capital need by Ctrl+Alt+Raise
  3. 03

    Design

    Design the company

    Value proposition, business model, product and technology architecture. The group's teams design with you. You have no one to hire yet.

    • The group's product, design and engineering teams work on your venture
    • Ctrl+Alt+IP files the trade mark and secures intangible assets before any announcement
    • Katalyst Hub prepares the legal structure, the shareholders' agreement and governance
    • Financial modelling and investor documentation by Ctrl+Alt+Raise
  4. 04

    Build

    Build with the group's means

    Development starts and the company is incorporated. This is where pooling changes the equation most: you rebuild neither payroll, nor legal, nor access to capital.

    • One hundred thousand euros of shared services, usable with no cash and no extra dilution
    • Product development and engineering by the group's technical teams
    • Incorporation, payroll, accounting, tax and compliance by Katalyst Hub
    • Ctrl+Alt+Grants prepares grant, public funding and tax credit applications
    • Ctrl+Alt+Raise structures the seed round and opens its investor network
  5. 05

    Launch

    Enter the market

    First customers, first revenue, first team. You move into a hub and reach the market through doors the group has already opened.

    • An operating base in one of the eight hubs: coworking, project studios, test rooms, event space
    • Communication, brand and press relations by the group's teams
    • Recruitment of the first key roles by Katalyst Hub
    • Access to the clients, distributors and partners of the portfolio companies
    • A shared dashboard: metrics, product maturity, commercial traction
  6. 06

    Grow

    Scale and go international

    Opening new countries is where a group differs from an investor. The regions, the international shared services and the capital network take over.

    • New country openings backed by the six regional subsidiaries
    • International shared services: employment law, contracts, tax and payroll, jurisdiction by jurisdiction
    • Growth rounds and repeat co-investors through Ctrl+Alt+Raise
    • Banking partners for working capital, debt and project finance
    • External growth and combinations within the portfolio
