Adveq joins €30m AEVI funding round
Adveq has provided €10m in a €30m capital increase for German fintech startup AEVI.
The co-investment was made alongside Dutch investor HPE Growth Capital, which provided the initial tranche of €20m in May 2016.
The investment is supposed to fund the company's international expansion. AEVI, which is part-owned by Diebold Nixdorf, was carved out of the group as an independent company at the start of the financial year in October 2015. Diebold Nixdorf intends to retain a majority holding in AEVI in the long term, alongside the new investors.
Since the initial investment in May, AEVI entered collaborations with London-based payments company Worldpay and California-based VSi, an app for the hospitality industry.
