The Valencian Institute of Finance (IVF), the public credit institution of the Generalitat, has granted €300,000 in funding to Kenko Imalytics through the Participatory Co-Investment Loan Line, a financial instrument supported by resources from the FEDER Valencian Community Program 2021-2027.
Through this financing line, the IVF supports the growth of innovative companies in the Valencian Community via participatory loans that encourage public-private co-investment in high-potential projects, particularly those in the technology sector and with added value.
The new operation approved for Kenko Imalytics will enable the company to accelerate its growth plan, acquiring both new material resources and human capital through the hiring of additional professionals.

Operations like this demonstrate our commitment to companies transforming strategic sectors such as healthcare through projects with high technology and talent content.”
“This line,” Montes added, “allows public and private financing to complement each other to support high-potential startups, thereby reinforcing the strength and growth of the Valencian innovation ecosystem.”
