Building the Startups of Tomorrow in Salestech, CIM & CRM

Studio 152 is a venture studio incubated by Via.io, created to design, fund, and launch high-potential startups in the fields of Salestech, CIM, and CRM.

Based at 152 boulevard Pereire, the historic headquarters of Via.io in Paris, the studio embodies a proven approach to company creation: bringing together bold early-stage founders with an experienced entrepreneur to maximize the chances of success.

This model is designed for entrepreneurs who want to combine the agility of a startup with the strength of an established player: access to a proven technology infrastructure, a commercial network that can be activated from day one, a frictionless operational framework, and funding that removes the need for early fundraising.

The ambition is to support four ventures per year, carefully selected for their strategic relevance and their ability to integrate into the Via.io ecosystem. Each project benefits from a structured onboarding process, immediate operational support, and a clearly defined trajectory, whether as an independent spin-off or through consolidation within the group.

The first two

Studio 152 is already building its first generation of companies within the Via.io ecosystem.

The first two ventures launched by the studio illustrate the type of companies we aim to create: highly focused, product-driven startups solving concrete problems in the sales, marketing and customer data stack.
