QuoIntelligence secures EUR 7.3 million Series A investment

The Frankfurt-based cybersecurity startup QuoIntelligence has closed a Series A financing round in the amount of 7.3 million euros. The round is led by Elevator Ventures, the venture arm of Raiffeisen Bank International, and implemented together with BMH Beteiligungs-Managementgesellschaft Hessen (BMH). Other investors are eCAPITAL ENTREPRENEURIAL PARTNERS and Mercurius Private Equity.

The capital will be used to expand sales, product development and the team in order to position QuoIntelligence as a provider of unified risk intelligence in Europe.

Regulatory pressure drives demand for cyber risk solutions

With new EU regulations such as NIS2 and DORA, the need for proactive cyber risk management is increasing significantly. In future, over 160,000 organizations in Europe will be obliged to continuously monitor and identify risks along their supply chains at an early stage.

This represents another major challenge for many companies. Setting up their own threat intelligence teams is cost-intensive and requires considerable human resources. At the same time, European data protection and procurement requirements are increasing the demand for providers that process data entirely within the EU.

Unified risk intelligence as an integrated solution

QuoIntelligence delivers ready-to-use risk analyses that bring together cyber threats, physical risks and geopolitical developments. The solution combines an AI-supported platform with human analysis: while the "Mercury" platform processes data, analysts check and contextualize the results. The offering is complemented by "KARLA", an AI-supported assistant that makes the information accessible across the organization.

A key differentiating feature is the fully European approach. Tech, data processing and storage take place within the EU, particularly in Germany.

Market traction and growing customer value

QuoIntelligence is entering the new financing round with significant growth. The company recorded no customer losses in 2025 and has increased its customer lifetime value almost sixfold since 2023. The startup is also increasingly focusing on a partner sales model. System integrators, resellers and service providers are becoming increasingly important for acquiring new customers.

With Elevator Ventures, QuoIntelligence has gained an investor with a strong network in the banking and finance sector in the DACH and CEE regions. Demand is particularly high in these regions due to regulatory requirements. BMH in turn creates access to German SMEs, particularly in Hesse - a key target market for the company, as many of the sectors concerned, such as industry and financial services, are strongly represented here.

Frankfurt as a deliberate locational advantage

QuoIntelligence was not founded in Frankfurt in 2020 by chance, but strategically. The city is considered the financial center of Europe and is home to the European Central Bank as well as numerous companies that fall under the new regulations.

The founding team around CEO Marco Riccardi brings many years of experience from financial and technology institutions and positions the company as a European answer to previously dominant international providers.

QuoIntelligence intends to use the Series A financing to roll out its platform across Europe and establish the standard for "Unified Risk Intelligence". The aim is to give companies of all sizes access to high-quality, regulatory-compliant risk intelligence without having to set up their own internal teams.
