Cosmico raises €12M in Series B round
Cosmico, a Milan-based company focusing on the future of work, has secured €12 million in a Series B funding round led by P101 SGR, with participation from existing investors like Prana Ventures. This significant investment underscores growing confidence in innovative European tech companies aiming to reshape professional environments and the creator economy. The funding aims to fuel Cosmico's ambitious expansion plans and its strategic acquisition-driven growth model. The financing round coincides with Cosmico's complete acquisition of Flatmates, a creator agency specializing in Talent-as-a-Service for the creator economy. This move strengthens Cosmico's ecosystem, which already encompasses Talent-as-a-Service for digital professionals, community-based employee engagement, and AI-supported team design. With operations spanning Italy and Spain, Cosmico now boasts a network of over 35,000 digital professionals and more than 300 clients, reinforcing its position in key European markets and the United States. This strategic consolidation positions Cosmico as a diversified "future of work" holding company, moving beyond a single product focus to a broader platform. The acquisition of Flatmates, which boasts partnerships with major brands like Google and Ducati, is expected to bolster Cosmico's presence in the rapidly evolving creator economy. The company plans further acquisitions by the end of 2026 to expand into adjacent segments and consolidate existing business units.
