AdMagica is a generative AI platform for e-commerce ad creative production, with corporate presence in London and core operations in Tbilisi.

The company emerged from the 500 Eurasia Batch 9 ecosystem and targets European commerce brands.
Celtra is a Slovenian adtech company focused on creative automation for digital marketing teams. Its software helps global brands and agencies produce, adapt, and distribute large volumes of campaign assets across formats, channels, languages, and audience variants without forcing design teams to recreate each asset manually. That capability matters because modern digital advertising requires massive variation in size, copy, locale, and targeting logic, and manual production quickly becomes a bottleneck. Celtra therefore sits in a high-value operational layer between creative strategy and campaign execution, helping marketing teams scale output while preserving consistency. In the European startup ecosystem, it is a strong example of B2B software built around workflow automation for brand and media teams rather than around direct media buying. It also connects naturally to localization and consumer-growth companies already in the directory, since multi-market campaigns depend heavily on structured creative production at scale.

DeepL’s core product is an AI-driven translator supporting 30+ languages, used for real-time document and content translation. The firm also launched DeepL Write to improve monolingual writing and an AI Agent to automate business tasks. As of 2025, DeepL is recognized as one of Europe’s premier AI startups, combining cutting-edge NLP research with a fast-growing SaaS business. The company’s success – valued at $2 billion and poised for a public offering – underscores Europe’s strength in deep-tech innovation.
