Ourstory

All DIGITAL BEGINNINGS

Nvision & Mpulse (1999 & 2006)

Raoul co-founded Nvision, a digital strategies and development agency, in 1999. A few years later, Georges got on board to create Mpulse, a telecom messaging, routing and micro-payments specialist, in 2006. Finologee’s third co-founder, Jonathan Prince, joined Mpulse in 2010 and helped establishing Mpulse France. Mpulse France was acquired in 2015 by Dimoco, one of the leading European carrier-billing specialists. Raoul, Georges and Jonathan still co-own and manage Mpulse Luxembourg today. Raoul was a member of the board of Nvision until early 2018.

HELLO FINANCIAL INDUSTRY

Digicash (2012)

Micro-payments was not enough for them, doing real payments was the goal. So, Raoul, Georges and Jonathan co-founded Digicash Payments in 2012 and got a full EU payment institution license. Digicash became the Luxembourg banks’ mobile payment product, with 5 issuing banks and over 20% of the population using the App. The founders made their first major exit when Digicash was acquired by Payconiq (backed by ING & KBC) in August 2017.

The Finologee DNA

Passion

We create cutting-edge digital products and we handle multi-level platform and digitisation projects for the financial industry. Digitisation is our passion and we believe that this kind of processes require a full holistic view and approach. In today’s digital world, it’s about crafting user experiences: consumers and professionals alike should like the tools, interfaces and processes we design and develop for them, they have to fully embrace them so they can become successful.

Entrepreneurship

We are entrepreneurs at heart, we built all the companies we co-created from scratch and either remained shareholders or we sold them to bigger players once they reached a certain scale and success. Thus, we believe in empowering the people we work with; taking responsibility is not an option, it’s a must from day one. And we are fully committed to our endeavours, since we believe this is a key ingredient to their success.

Partnerships

We design all our products, projects and companies around partnerships: we leverage joint commitments to speed up development and to quickly reach required size and scale. We do so both with the people that work with us and the companies we work with or for: a carefully built and designed partnership is the cornerstone to a successful and long-lasting project, product or collaboration.
