SEQUESTO secures €2.5 million to accelerate international growth

Cresco is proud to have assisted Smartfin and Newion with their new strategic €2.5 million investment in SEQUESTO, a Belgian scale-up redefining the way companies respond to tenders, RFIs, and RFPs.

Founded in 2020 by Patrick Dalvinck (CEO) and Evrard t’Serstevens (CTO), SEQUESTO has evolved from a Belgian start-up into an international growth company. Today, SEQUESTO operates in multiple European core markets and the US, serving customers ranging from fast-growing SaaS companies to highly regulated enterprises, including ISS Facility Services, ooDrive, and Barona. The team currently numbers sixteen and continues to grow.

By adding SEQUESTO to their portfolio, Smartfin and Newion continue to focus on early- and growth-stage B2B technology companies.

Congrats to Frank Claassen (Newion), Giacomo Benatelli (Newion), Jürgen Ingels (Smartfin), Sebastien Thiel (Smartfin), Laura Guillaume (Smartfin), Jean-Baptiste Maenhout (Smartfin), Patrick Dalvinck (SEQUESTO), Evrard t’Serstevens (SEQUESTO) and all other parties involved!

The Cresco team was composed of David Dessers, Dominik Verbist, Nicholas Borgmans and Nicolas Borreman.
