HGO commits $9m to Exos and €4m to Antaria in latest growth-stage investments

January 15, 2025

Hamilton Global Opportunities has announced two strategic investments that align with its focus on high-potential technology-driven companies.

The firm has expanded its involvement with Exos Financial, a US-based financial institution platform that leverages advanced technology to disrupt institutional finance. HGO increased its commitment to Exos through a convertible loan note, bringing its total investment in the company to $9m.

Founded in 2018 by Brady Dougan, former Credit Suisse CEO, Exos combines cutting-edge data and analytics with a scalable, interconnected platform to deliver comprehensive financial services.

In addition, HGO has completed a €4m investment in Antaria Holding, an Ireland-based alternative lending platform specialising in pharmacy services. Antaria focuses on supporting independent pharmacies, offering financing and business management solutions through its proprietary technology platform. While currently targeting the French market, the company has ambitions to expand its business model across Europe, aiming to become the preferred partner for pharmacies.

Commenting on the investments, Hamilton Global Opportunities CEO Gustavo Perrotta said, “We are very pleased to demonstrate our continued commitment to the Exos management team through our acquisition of the convertible loan notes. We are also excited to have had the opportunity to invest in Antaria which is a company profile that corresponds perfectly to our investment policy based on a dynamic management team, high-potential and responsible innovation.”
