Adventus

Advens exists to protect organizations from cyberthreats, but this is not their only purpose. As a European, independent cybersecurity leader founded in 2000, Advens seeks to have an impact on the world, society, and lives. With 600+ experts across France and Europe, the company provides 24/7 protection through mySOC, their sovereign SOC-as-a-Service platform, incident response via CERT Advens, and offensive security services. In 2025, Advens became B Corp™ certified, recognizing their commitment to balancing profit with purpose. Guided by the conviction that vulnerability is not a weakness but the starting point for strength, Advens has structured its business model around two entities: the cybersecurity company and the Advens for People and Planet endowment fund. Through a financial retrocession mechanism, as the company grows, it contributes to funding societal initiatives in education, inclusion, democracy, and sustainability. This mission-driven approach - making cybersecurity accessible while reinvesting in positive change - demonstrates that economic, social, and environmental value creation can grow together.

Elevus is a Portuguese Human Resources firm with over 20 years of experience delivering recruitment, assessment, and outsourcing solutions across Portugal, Brazil, Spain, Germany, and Luxembourg. The company operates through two distinct but complementary tracks: traditional HR consulting services and a technology division called Elevus.tech that provides IT outsourcing, nearshore solutions, and Talent-as-a-Service offerings. Led by CEO Cláudia Beirão, Elevus positions itself as a flexibility-first operation that adapts to client-specific goals rather than imposing standardized frameworks. The Elevus.tech division extends the company's core HR capabilities into technical staffing and project-based IT work, focusing on nearshore delivery models that leverage Portugal's geographic and time zone proximity to Western European clients. This technical arm handles IT outsourcing engagements where clients need external teams to supplement internal capacity or execute specific technology projects. The Talent-as-a-Service model treats skilled personnel as a scalable resource, allowing organizations to dial technical capacity up or down without the overhead of permanent hiring. Elevus differentiates on proximity-driven partnerships - maintaining local presence in multiple European markets and Brazil to enable direct client relationships rather than purely remote arrangements. The company's stated approach centers on measurable results and mutual success metrics rather than transactional placement. With operations spanning five countries and two decades of HR domain experience, Elevus functions as both a traditional recruitment consultancy and a technical staffing provider, addressing workforce needs that range from permanent hire searches to project-based nearshore development teams.

Today, Avertium serves over 1,200 organizations across 15 industries with a unique "Assess, Design, Protect" methodology that addresses the entire security continuum. The company operates two Cyber Fusion Centers providing 24/7/365 monitoring, backed by 400+ certifications and 900,000+ devices under management. Their mission remains clear: to make their customers' world safer so they can thrive in an always-on, connected world. By combining proprietary Fusion Engine technology with deep Microsoft Security expertise, Avertium helps organizations achieve measurable cyber maturity without the complexity of building in-house security operations.

We're building the first AI-powered HCP Engagement Engine because we saw a problem that needed solving: too much noise between physicians and the pharma resources they need. Founded by a board-certified dermatologist and a healthcare executive, Impiricus was born from genuine frustration with how healthcare professionals connect with pharmaceutical companies. We knew there had to be a better way - one that actually serves physicians and their patients. Today, we operate the largest opted-in network of healthcare providers, using AI and real-time channels to deliver evidence-based resources directly into the hands of underserved HCPs. Our platform reaches about 30% of physicians who don't engage through traditional channels, with 95% of messages opened within three minutes. We've been recognized as the #1 fastest growing company in North America on Deloitte's 2025 Technology Fast 500, but what matters most is the impact we're having: helping 1 million patients access therapy in 2025 alone.
