Overview

Grupo Planeta created Planeta Fabrik Ventures in 2018 as its corporate venture unit. Fabrik works through two lines: Venture Investment, taking stakes in pre-seed and seed startups with the aim of integrating them into a Planeta business area or selling the stake, and Corporate Venture Building, developing projects internally for later integration into a business unit. Its own site says it looks for projects at pre-seed, seed and Series A in leisure, entertainment, reading, collectibles, training and education, using AI, blockchain or AR/VR.

Investment thesis

Startups with a technology component that adapt traditional solutions and add value to Grupo Planeta’s areas — publishing, content, entertainment, culture, education, training and collectibles — at pre-seed, seed and Series A; the goal is integration into a Planeta business or a return from selling the stake.
