Swile
Swile is a Paris-based employee benefits and fintech platform founded in 2018 by Loic Soubeyrand. The company digitizes meal vouchers, gift cards, mobility credits, and other employee perks into a single smart card and mobile app, replacing the paper-based benefits systems that remain common across France and Southern Europe. Swile raised over EUR 200 million from investors including SoftBank Vision Fund and has been valued at over EUR 1 billion. In 2022 it merged with Brazilian benefits platform Bswift to expand into Latin America. Swile is a leading force in modernizing employee experience across Europe.
TechWolf
TechWolf is a Ghent-founded enterprise AI company building the skills inference layer that large organizations need to move from role-based to skills-based operating models. Instead of asking employees and managers to maintain a skills taxonomy by hand (which never works at scale), TechWolf ingests signals from the systems where work actually happens — HRIS, ATS, learning platforms, project-management tools, internal wikis — and uses NLP models to derive a live, probabilistic skills graph per employee. Large enterprises plug that graph into internal mobility, workforce planning, strategic sourcing, and generative-AI copilots to answer questions like 'who inside the company can staff this project?' or 'how exposed is this business unit to automation?'. The company has raised growth capital from Felix Capital and Stride.VC and counts several Fortune 500 HR and technology buyers among its clients, and has partnered with SAP SuccessFactors, ServiceNow, and Workday as an embeddable skills engine — a strategically useful position in a category now being chased by the biggest HCM vendors in the world.
