Testimonials

What our investors have to say about us

EDP Ventures, through the EDP Cleantech fund, in partnership with Banco Português de Fomento, reinforced its investment in LOQR’s Series A. We believe that the success that LOQR is having in offering tools to manage the customer digital identity lifecycle for the financial sector will be replicated in other industries, including energy sector. We are very pleased with the completion of this LOQR Series A. We welcome the new investors, Iberis Capital and Semapa Next, and express our commitment to continue working with the founders and other investors, contributing to the company’s success.

Luis Manuel CEO EDP Ventures SC

LOQR is a player with a unique and innovative approach to digital transformation and dematerialization for the banking industry, based on its intellectual property and R&D. In a short time, it asserted itself as a key player in the Iberian market and is well poised for its next expansion stage. As LOQR's new strategic and financial partners, we are excited to be a part of its growth and internationalization journey.

João Henriques Partner Iberis Capital

BiG Start Ventures was one of the first investors in LOQR, and throughout each round we have reinforced our confidence in the company. As a Fintech-focused VC we observe the space in-depth and reckon the identity management as a pillar on infrastructure that is still to be cracked, where LOQR plays an inevitable part of the solution. Now more than ever, there isn’t one bank ready for the digital future that doesn’t need LOQR.

João Freire de Andrade Executive Director BiG Start Ventures

Semapa Next invested in LOQR because its founders demonstrated exceptional qualities to create a differentiating company in Europe. The LOQR team created a simple product for a complex problem, which has already been validated by the main banks in Iberia. Additionally, the quality of the talent that has joined LOQR is a sign of the founders' leadership capacity and a strong indicator of LOQR's potential to be the leader in digital identification and authentication for traditional banking in Europe.

Hugo Augusto Executive Board Member Semapa Next

We are very happy to continue supporting LOQR's business development. This new funding round will certainly contribute to consolidating the leading position of LOQR's Digital Onboarding Platform and accelerating its international expansion. A special welcome to Semapa Next and Iberis who will join the team and remaining shareholders in this growth journey.
