fund formation
Cresco is proud to have advised the founders of Artwod and the company on the successful closing of its seed funding round. The round was led by Airbridge Equity Partners, alongside ForsVC. The investment provides Artwod with additional resources to broaden its offering, further develop its platform and support the company’s next phase of growth.
Artwod operates at the intersection of creative education and digital community. Its platform brings together structured learning content, practice tools and interaction with other artists in a single environment, making artistic development more accessible and allowing users to progress at their own pace.
The transaction brings together Artwod’s founding team with two investors experienced in supporting ambitious and innovative companies. With the backing of Airbridge Equity Partners and ForsVC, Artwod is well positioned to strengthen its product, expand its reach and build on the momentum it has established among a growing base of aspiring artists.
We congratulate the founders and the entire Artwod team on this important milestone and extend our sincere thanks to all parties involved, in particular Antonio Stappaerts, Frederik Van Hove, Rick van Boekel, en Arne Ottoy, for the excellent collaboration throughout this transaction.
The Cresco deal team consisted of Glenn L’hoëst, Fleur Vanswijgenhoven and Nicholas Borgmans.
