Invest in Y Combinator startups
x10.58* is the median multiple for an investor who has invested in at least 10 startups across 8 consecutive Y Combinator batches. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
Accessing these startups means entering an ultra-exclusive circle where only the most influential investors are welcome. French YC investors can be counted on one hand.
Blast. engages with startups before Demo Day and has already enabled its members to invest in several startups from YC’s Spring and Summer 2025 batches, mobilizing several million euros.

How we invest effectively at Blast
A rigorous selection process
Only 1% of applications received are funded. Blast conducts an initial selection based on four criteria: the team, the product, the market, and the financials. We then perform a full audit of the pre-selected companies with our team of analysts. Next, we negotiate the best possible legal terms with Anthony and our lawyers. To learn more about our selection process, click here.
Access deals as they are posted
Blast offers 2 deals per month. As soon as a new project launches, members get access to a complete dossier: business plan, deck, FICI, and founders’ video pitch. Anthony and the Blast experts also share their investment rationale to help members assess the project’s potential. Interact with the founders, Anthony, and other members during the live pitch and on the dedicated Discord channel for the fundraising.
You decide if you want to invest
You have 15 days to express your intention to invest in the project. In case of oversubscription—that is, if we receive more intentions than the maximum amount that can be raised—Blast has developed an algorithm to allocate intentions fairly. It’s not first-come, first-served. However, you can use a priority voucher, if included in your membership, to avoid being diluted.
We take care of the administrative steps
Once your investment is approved and your subscription form signed, the legal team transfers the funds to a holding company (SPV) created specifically for the deal, and then invests in the startup’s capital. They handle the signing of the shareholders’ agreement and maintain the shareholder register. You don’t have to do anything. Your subscription form and share ownership certificate are available in your Blast interface.
Découvrez les deals
Blast. vous propose 2 deals par mois. Dès le lancement de l’opération, vous avez accès à un contenu exclusif : la présentation du projet par la direction des investissements Blast, un deck, un prévisionnel financier mais aussi un pitch en vidéo des fondateurs. Anthony, ainsi que nos experts, vous expliquent également pourquoi ils ont décidé d’investir dans l’opération. Cela vous permet d’avoir accès à l’ensemble des informations nécessaires à votre prise de décision tout en restant maître de votre investissement.
Echangez sur le projet
Durant 15 jours, vous avez accès à un forum de discussion privé dédié à cette opération. Vous y rencontrez les fondateurs de la startup, Anthony Bourbon et nos experts. Vous allez pouvoir poser toutes vos questions et ainsi obtenir un feedback de l’intérieur. Aussi, quelques jours après la mise en ligne de l’opération, la direction des investissements Blast. organise un live avec les fondateurs pour répondre aux dernières interrogations des membres. Le replay est accessible dès le lendemain sur la plateforme.
Placez votre intention
Vous disposez de 15 jours pour indiquer le montant que vous souhaitez investir dans l’opération. En cas de sursouscription, c’est-à-dire si nous obtenons plus d’intentions que le montant maximum pouvant être levé, Blast. a développé un algorithme permettant de répartir équitablement les intentions. Pas de premiers arrivés, premiers servis. Nous garantissons à chacun le temps nécessaire à sa réflexion. Néanmoins, vous avez la possibilité de choisir une adhésion avec un bon de priorité associé qui vous permettra, en cas de coup de cœur, d’assurer le montant de votre intention.
Validez votre investissement
A l’issue de la période d’intentions, vous recevez un email avec le montant final de votre allocation ainsi qu’un lien de signature électronique de votre bulletin de souscription. Le versement de votre investissement s’effectue en amont du placement de votre intention, sur le compte bancaire que nous ouvrons en votre nom sur le compte de notre prestataire agrée Lemonway. Vous êtes certain d’investir dans les délais impartis.

Questions

What are the risks of investing in startups?
Investing in unlisted companies involves a risk of capital loss and liquidity risk. Only invest money that you do not immediately need and diversify your savings.
Can I invest through a company?
You can invest with a company, as an individual, or both, on each operation. You have the choice of creating one or more profiles when you join the Club, and throughout your membership.
How can I join?
To join the Club, you must sign up for one of the 5 membership levels, ranging from Bronze to Diamond. Each level has three parameters:
- The maximum authorized investment in each fundraising campaign,
- The maximum cumulative investment authorized for the year,
- The number of priority vouchers associated with your membership, which guarantee your place in a fundraising event, even if it is oversubscribed.
Your profile will also be subject to selection. Blast. makes it a priority to guarantee Club members exclusive, high-quality deals - around twenty each year. In order to allow everyone to invest, Blast. therefore accepts very few new members. To become one of them, you must apply via this link. This will be followed by an interview with an investor relations officer who will present your application to the Blast selection committee.
