Overview
Business Angels Marne Ardennes (BAMA) is an association created in 2014 with the sponsorship of Paris Business Angels. It presents its members with innovative companies whose jobs or economic impact relate to the Marne, the Ardennes or the wider Grand Est; each member decides individually whether and how much to invest after two pitches and an instruction phase. Since late 2024 members can also invest collectively through SIBAMA, a business-angel investment company. Its site lists 16 portfolio companies, from Genepredict (2014) to ADEMUS and Agri Lab Leverage (2025).
