Our vision: Empower the builders of tomorrow by making business financing more accessible

About us

Silvr connects businesses with financial partners to find the best funding option accessible to SMEs. Thanks to its financial assessment technology, Silvr supports the development of businesses looking to diversify their funding sources. Since its creation in 2020, Silvr has already deployed over €250 million directly and indirectly to several thousand businesses.

Our story

Silvr was created in 2020 in France by two HEC Paris graduates and friends: Nima Karimi, serial entrepreneur, and Greg Tappero, three-time former CTO. Active in the entrepreneurial ecosystem for many years, Nima and Greg quickly found themselves confronted with the challenges faced by businesses seeking to grow or simply ensure continuity. Creating Silvr is their solution to one of the biggest of these challenges: funding.
