Our Values

So that our actions are guided by what we stand for.

Person-Centred

We focus on the "who" before taking an interest in the “what".

We carefully choose our partners and place the highest importance on the quality of the relationship we build with them — ensuring it is healthy and lasting.

In other words, we only know how to grow through a spirit of kindness, openness, empathy, and guide towards collective success.

Excellence

There is no performance without high standards.

We are consistently committed to the professionalism and excellence that define our teams and underpin everything we do.

We always aim higher and push further to tackle the most complex challenges — together.

Commitment

We place the utmost importance on personally committing alongside entrepreneurs, SME executives, fund managers, talents, and charities we support.

Our ambition is fully dedicated to the success of our partners.

This collective performance is, in our opinion, the real driver of progress.

Testimonials

Jean Christophe Fayard témoigne pour 9 Capital Management Jean-Christophe Fayard Capelia
"

Capelia only manages money from entrepreneurs. As such, meeting Julien Lobel six years ago, who had just sold 99 Advisory, was a wonderful encounter. Julien was a perfect fit with our DNA and values. We have seen the family office and fund of funds investment activities of 9 Capital Management grow over the years. However, Julien and his team have always remained very accessible, passionate about SMEs, and loyal to Capelia. Halfway between private equity and institutional management, 9 Capital Management has a highly professional approach while maintaining its pragmatism, operational flexibility, and human touch. We are very happy to have them on our side."

Anthony Dubut témoigne pour 9 Capital Management Anthony Dubut InnovaFonds
"

9 Capital Management has been a trusted partner of InnovaFonds for several years. Their entrepreneurial approach, professionalism, and selectivity are values that we fully share. We have been able to share investment opportunities with the team, which is small, experienced, and particularly responsive. "

Cody Huggins témoigne pour 9 Capital Management Cody Huggins Scout Ventures
"

9 Capital Management has been an exceptional partner in both Scout Ventures Fund III & IV.  We greatly value the relationship we’ve been able to establish, which has allowed for unparalleled information flow for both sides.  This relationship has led to in-person meetings between our firms held across the U.S. & Europe, enabling clear understanding of how we can support each others mission.  We look forward to growing and building this partnership for years to come."

Caroline Quéré témoigne pour 9 Capital Management Caroline Quéré Spirit Asset Management
"

The adventure with 9 Capital Management began more than 10 years ago and several years of assignments with a solid, competent, multi-disciplinary team, capable of adapting to unforeseen events, organizational challenges, and different internal teams. Driven by Julien's entrepreneurial spirit and determination, 9 Capital Management quickly developed its investment activities by drawing on the solid skills of its team. Beyond that, the Group is characterized by a strong commitment to creating relationships of trust that place people at the heart of its partnerships. It is therefore with great pleasure that I have agreed to participate in the development of the Group's philanthropic activities, which go far beyond simple financial support for associations. 9 Charity ensures that it is actively involved in the projects it supports by regularly communicating with teams in the field to ensure that its actions have a lasting and concrete impact. Here's to the next 10 years of ever more fruitful human connections and investments that make a difference!

Nicolas Ramlot témoigne pour 9 Capital Management Nicolas Ramlot Milestone Advisory
"

9 Studio has been with us since our first months in business. Beyond our shared values, we particularly appreciate the man-hours devoted to advising the management team, the excellent knowledge of our market, and the highly entrepreneurial culture of the teams. It was this combination that proved invaluable in helping us ask the right questions and make the right decisions, certainly six to nine months before we would have asked them ourselves. This combination has been invaluable in helping us ask the right questions and make the right decisions, certainly 6 to 9 months before we would have asked them ourselves."

Ludovic De la Genardière témoigne pour 9 Capital Management Ludovic de la Genardière Elab – Fluxod
"

I would like to warmly thank the team at 9 Studio for their trust and unwavering support over the past decade. Their investment has been an essential catalyst for the development of Elab - Fluxod. But beyond the financial aspect, their expertise in our sector of activity, their entrepreneurial DNA, and the network they have have greatly benefited us have been considerable assets that have enabled us to significantly accelerate our growth. 9 Studio is now a true partner on whom we can rely."

Philippe Denis témoigne pour 9 Capital Management Philippe Denis Compagnie Aziadé
"

A luminous encounter with 9 Charity, initiated by a spontaneous exchange in the street with Julien, marked the beginning of a beautiful adventure. A few weeks later, a new meeting with the team reinforced this connection. These warm and committed human exchanges led to a valuable decision : to support the show “Le Secret des Lucioles” for a period of three years. This support is not limited to financial backing, but is part of an active involvement in every stage of the project: from the first readings to rehearsals, right up to the final performance. 9 Charity is now much more than a partner: its team has become an ambassador for Aziadé, connecting the company to its network and other associations. An incredible team that lights the way for Aziadé like real fireflies."

Charlotte Mormentyn témoigne pour 9 Capital Management Charlotte Mormentyn Aportéed’elles
"

We appreciate 9 Charity's partnership-based vision and its approach to supporting associations : the team is genuinely interested in our project and wants to make a long-term commitment to us, which is reassuring and allows us to build a lasting relationship based on trust that goes beyond financial support. They trust us, open up their network to us, and we know we can count on them and that they will be available to help us if needed."

Stéphanie Le Beuze témoigne pour 9 Capital Management Stéphanie Le Beuze Apprentis d’Auteuil
"

9 Charity has been funding numerous parenting support initiatives for our parent networks for the past three years, including family vacations, parent-child workshops, and parent cafés. Their support allows us to go further in our parenting support initiatives and is a real bonus for the families we assist. The team is particularly sensitive to these support initiatives: they are curious about our prevention mission, committed to helping families, interested in any new initiatives, and very accessible. It is a real pleasure to work with them!"

Cédric Lacaze témoigne pour 9 Capital Management Cédric Lacaze Rgreen Invest
"

Discussing shared values, sharing strong convictions, directing capital towards the most attractive investment vehicles: this is what being part of the 9 Spirit ecosystem is all about. A long-term strategy is is built by defining an investment strategy and by the discipline of implementing it over time. This dual exercise is demanding and requires the ability to draw on diverse financial and entrepreneurial skills. That's what motivates my involvement with 9 Spirit!"
