We are proud to have supported Macai, a quick-commerce startup, in a $3 million pre-seed round.
The round was led by Lumen Ventures as the lead investor, with participation from Plug and Play Tech Center, CATS.VC, and other investors.
With the capital raised, Macai will be able to begin its growth journey, which includes expanding the team, developing its technology infrastructure, launching over 50 dark stores in Italy over the next 24 months, and beginning international expansion from Q2/Q3 2022.
“We are proud to have supported such an innovative and fast-growing company as Macai, which stands out for its strong and highly skilled team. This round represents a key milestone for the company, but also an important signal for the Italian VC ecosystem,” commented Andrea Casati, Vice President, Growth Capital.
