Where is Hexa headed in 2025?
In 2025, our goal at Hexa is to launch 13 startups—that’s 3 more than 2024. It might seem like a small increase, but launching 3 additional companies on the ground is a significant jump in terms of structure and resources. It’s an ambitious but achievable target as we continue working toward our bigger goal of 30 startups a year by 2030.

2024 was a year of giving it our all. Within the studio, we made big strides toward our goal of launching 30 startups a year by 2030.

Now leading Swan, his biggest venture yet, Nicolas opens up about the challenges of early entrepreneurship, the mental toll of being a founder, and his mission to create a generational company that redefines embedded banking.

We decided to change our name to reflect a new ambition: to move beyond B2B SaaS, explore new verticals, and provide different types of support to entrepreneurs beyond pure creation.
