Is an ex-baker revolutionizing investment in France?
Guest on the channel Jokariz, Bradley Lafond, founder of Fundora, looks back on an atypical career that led him to rethink private equity investment.
Graduated fromEDHEC, Bradley understood early on that neither traditional finance nor wage employment matched his vision. He then made a radical choice: to resume a CAP baker and start your own bakeries. Their success allows him to invest in several companies... and to discover from within the limits of private equity, a closed universe reserved for a minority.
From this frustration comes a strong conviction: the investment must be more accessible, more transparent and fairer. It is this vision that will give birth to Fundora, a platform for investing in private equity funds starting at €100.
