The shareholders of Italian proptech Casavo, a scaleup that Giorgio Tinacci founded, turned down their preemption rights for the 30 million euros worth hybrid instruments (10.9% of the firm) that the company issued earlier in July (see here a previous post by BeBeez). The company attracted the interest of Softbank and Balteron Capital. However, some of the company’s shareholders already invested in such instruments that will turn in equity stakes if the company will raise 20 million from new investors or relevant liquidity through an IPO.
