The Toulouse-based start-up Hinfact, which offers an advanced analysis solution to airline pilots’ training centers, has completed its first round of financing of nearly 4 million euros, as part of the acceleration of the marketing of its solutions, and to extend them to new sectors such as the military, nuclear or health.
After validating its technology and convincing its first customers, Hinfact announces, on April 12, 2023, a first fundraising of 4 million euros. A mix of debt and equity in which the venture capital company Innovacom, advised by Joffe & Associés, has participated with 1.5 million euros, mobilizing its “early-stage” fund Technocom 3, as well as several business angels. The objective is simple: to accelerate the industrial and commercial development of its solutions, and to extend its technology to other diversified sectors.
Hinfact works with airline training centers around the world. Its technology, at the forefront of neuroscience research, is based on neurotransmitters and stimulators applied to pilots, which aim at improving flight safety through three axes: pilot training, aircraft design and flight operations. Thus, the Toulouse-based start-up proposes a tool to retrieve, analyze and interpret pilots’ piloting and eye data within the stimulators in order to objectively detect areas for improvement. This solution has been offered and marketed since March 2022, and should accelerate in 2023, with the doubling of the company’s workforce, which currently consists of about ten employees.
