RegTech Startup Kalipso Secures $3.2M Led by Varsity Key Points 👇 ❶ Kalipso, a Barcelona-based regulatory technology startup founded in 2025, has raised $3.2 million to expand across Europe and grow its team. ❷ The round was led by Varsity , with participation from Lanai Ventures, Plug and Play Tech Center, Kima Ventures, and Vento, backing Kalipso's compliance platform. ❸ Kalipso's platform helps compliance teams turn new regulations into specific, traceable fixes instead of relying on manual, disconnected processes. “Compliance teams have been stitching together disconnected tools for too long. Kalipso closes that gap, taking organisations from regulatory change to implementing policies, controls and procedures inside a single system. Teams don't need another alert feed or another long report. They need infrastructure that turns regulation into action, and the peace of mind of knowing they are compliant.” - Virginia Debernardi, Co-Founder and COO of Kalipso. “The hardest part of compliance is not interpreting the law. It's implementing it — and almost nobody building in this space has stood on both sides of it. I have. As a lawyer embedded in engineering at Klarna, I watched those handoffs fail in real time. Most tools on the market are built either by lawyers who can’t engineer or engineers who don’t understand the law. Kalipso is built by people who are both. We didn’t abstract this problem: we lived it, and we built the system we couldn’t buy.” - Pierre F., Co-Founder and CEO of Kalipso. “I spent most of my career inside one of Europe’s largest banks, where compliance is still largely manual, fragmented and reactive. What convinced me about Kalipso is the team — founders who genuinely understand both the law and the engineering, building for a sector I know from the inside. This is infrastructure the industry will need.” - Didier Valet, Board Member and investor, former Deputy CEO of Société Générale and co-founder of Varsity. #RegTech #Compliance #Fintech #StartupFunding #Europe https://lnkd.in/ddM4-aqy
