Deskare (Future 40, 2021) raises 1,2M€ to facilitate hybrid work organization

After Kompozite, Deskare is the second startup selected in the last edition of STATION F’s Future 40, the 40 most promising seed-stage companies of the campus, to raise funds. Created by Vianney Goater (CEO), Thomas Dauphin (COO) and Victor Fritz (CTO) in 2021, Deskare, par of HEC Program at STATION F announced a 1,2M€ raise with business angels including the founders of OVRSEA, MoovOne, Tiller Systems, Lemlist or Lingueo.

The Covid crisis suddenly changed our habits about remote work and constrained companies to adapt extremely fast. So the founding team of Deskare decided to create a tool to help them to switch easily to hybrid work. They developed a simple and integrated SaaS platform allowing HR and Workplace teams to save 10 hours per week, while reinforcing employees engagement and loyalty. Thanks to this tool, employees can simply and quickly report day at the office and remote working days, share their planning to easily find their teammates, and make sure they have a free desk when they come at the office.

Within 6 months, Deskare onboarded 30 customers including Ledger and Back Market, deployed its solution in 17 countries and was selected in STATION F’s Future 40. “STATION F’s support, especially with the Future 40 selection, took our project to another dimension: a real growing company”, says Vianney Goater, co-founder and CEO of Deskare.

Thanks to this first fundraising, Deskare plans to massively invest in the development of its platform and new features, develop its business to reach more companies (with 2000+ employees) and become the French leader of this new domain, before expanding internationally.

“We are extremely happy with the trust of our investors. This trust will allow us to go further and faster in the development of new features to even better meet our customers’ needs, reinforce our business efforts to allow even more companies facing hybrid work changes to benefit from our solution and recruit 10 new talents in 2022”, explains Vianney Goater.
