OUR STARTUPS

Projects that bring our strategy to life

Since May 2023, we have analyzed more than 200 opportunities, launched 4 ventures—such as Adecua, Vivara, Musky, and Aurela—, invested in startups such as Cuideo, and partnered with over a dozen Venture Capital funds across Europe and the United States.

Each project is a commitment to sustainable growth, scalability, and the creation of shared value.
Adecua
Venture Builder

Adecua

Transforms homes for seniors or people with reduced mobility — from small adaptations to full renovations, including the management of public subsidies.

España
Home / Seniors
July 2023

Challenge and our solution:

In Spain, thousands of older adults wish to age in their own homes but are unable to do so due to physical barriers that turn everyday activities into potential risks.

In collaboration with 7R Ventures and Atresmedia, GCO Ventures launched Adecua to address this need. We contributed strategic vision, go-to-market capabilities, and technology to scale a model validated with accessibility experts, seniors, and their families. Today, Adecua offers an end-to-end service covering everything from home adaptations to the management of public subsidies, supported by a network of over 500 professionals and 98% coverage across Spain.

Vivara
Venture Builder

Vivara

Ensures on-time rent payments and manages the entire rental process. Tenant selection, maintenance, and financial security for property owners. Easy, reliable renting.

España
Home / Proptech
March 2024

Challenge and our solution:

At GCO Ventures, we created Vivara with a clear mission: to offer a rental experience where landlords, tenants, and agents can find peace of mind, simplicity, and trust at every step. From day one, we collaborated with all three groups to design a model that combines technology, professional management, and real guarantees.

Today, Vivara operates nationwide, managing rentals end-to-end with a fully worry-free approach for landlords: we select verified and solvent tenants, guarantee rent payments through Occident’s rent-protection policy, and handle any incidents with year-round, 24/7 support. In addition, we offer real estate agencies a B2B solution that complements their value proposition and generates recurring revenue.

Our contribution as investment partners:

We invested in Cuideo to support the company in its next stage of growth and consolidation as a leading provider of in-home elderly care.

From GCO Ventures, we contribute our operational and strategic expertise to help expand its caregiver network, develop new services focused on seniors’ holistic well-being, and optimize its technology platform. We work alongside the management team to strengthen its leadership in the Spanish market and explore new opportunities for both organic and inorganic growth.

Challenge and our solution:

Preventive and veterinary care are essential to every pet’s health — yet many families struggle to cover unexpected costs.

At GCO Ventures, we created Musky to break that barrier and bring veterinary health closer to more homes — not only through insurance coverage but also through prevention. Our goal is to create an environment where pets can live healthy and happy lives. Today, Musky protects hundreds of pets across Spain through a seamless digital experience that puts animal health and well-being at its core.

Aurela

Every step has been validated with patients, therapists, and industry experts to ensure a relevant and human-centered solution. Today, Aurela offers online and in-person therapy with personalized matching and a professional ecosystem — all within a single platform.
