SeedBlink launches CORE: The digital co-pilot that prepares Europe’s founders like Olympic athletes

Bucharest, September 16, 2025 – SeedBlink, the European private markets infrastructure, is changing how Europe’s founders raise capital with the launch of CORE: a digital co-pilot that turns fundraising from a painful marathon into a structured sprint. Built on insights from 15,000 startup reviews, 2% funded, and €78M in investments enabled, CORE addresses the real issue: founders don’t fail because of weak ideas, but because the fundraising solutions are outdated and fragmented.

In a European market where raising capital too often feels like an unfair race - expensive, bureaucratic, and locked behind exclusive networks - CORE levels the playing field. For€50/month, it equips every founder to step into the fundraising arena like an Olympic athlete: prepared, visible, and ready to compete at today’s speed.

“Fundraising today is slow, costly, and unfairly in favor towards the well-connected,” said Radu Georgescu, Chairman of SeedBlink. “CORE changes that. For the cost of a dinner, every founder gets the same tools, visibility, and infrastructure that used to be manual, expensive and reserved for a few. The real risk isn’t trying. It’s waiting.”

What founders access with CORE:

• An AI Fundraising Assistant that offers instant guidance on deal terms, strategy, and investor questions.
• Digital pitch deck reviews that provide slide-by-slide feedback and investor-ready templates, from forecasts to contracts.
• A Spotlight profile, a “LinkedIn for fundraising”, that gives startups visibility with thousands of investors and early feedback on their idea.
• And when ready, the ability to open a private round in under 72 hours with a single shareable link, real-time commitment tracking, and all administrative work handled by SeedBlink.

“I applaud SeedBlink's initiative to create the type of digital tools that founders in today’s European market need,” said Daniel Dunose, CEO & Co-founder Brainactive, one of the first users of CORE. “A way to prepare and raise from your network without being blocked by high fees or complicated processes. Finally, fundraising feels like something you can do on your own terms.”  

A boost for accelerators and incubators

Beyond individual founders, CORE is also a powerful add-on for accelerators and incubators across Europe. It gives cohorts an accessible fundraising pathway during their programs, allowing startups to raise during and after the program, validate faster, and get feedback from thousands of European investors. It means equipping founders with practical, ready-to-use tools instead of stopping after Demo Day.

“At SeedBlink, it’s not just about building products, it’s about rewriting the playbook for Europe’s founders. At AcceleronX, we see CORE as more than a tool. It is a discipline, a mindset, and a game-changer for young entrepreneurs ready to compete globally. Europe doesn’t lack ideas, it lacks infrastructure, and CORE delivers it - equipping founders with the tools and confidence to stand shoulder to shoulder with seasoned players,” said Alex Cernătescu, CEO& Co-Founder Stefanini Infinit, Investor & Founding Partner &President AcceleronX / EXEDA.

Winning in the big league

The average early-stage raise in Europe takes 6–9 months and often ends with nothing. CORE flips the model: a digital co-pilot that gets startups investor-ready faster, makes them visible earlier, and helps convert interest into commitments. By reducing the fundraising burden, it helps founders spend less time chasing capital and more time building traction.

This is part of SeedBlink’s broader mission to build Europe’s private market infrastructure, covering the full fundraising lifecycle: preparing, raising, and managing stakeholders. Because fundraising shouldn’t be a mystery or a privilege.
