Taalentfy, a technology platform specialising in employability and career guidance, has secured a funding round backed by Axon Partners Group and co-financed by CaixaBank. The operation aims to strengthen the connection between education and the labour market and to accelerate the company’s growth plan for the coming years.
The funding will enable the company to consolidate its business model, reinforce its operational structure and scale its technology platform across the education, corporate and public-sector segments. Taalentfy enters this new phase after closing 2024 with positive EBITDA of more than €150,000, against a backdrop of growing demand to improve young people’s employability and better align training with business needs.
This funding allows us to accelerate a growth plan that was already underway, but with greater impact and solidity, says Alejandro González, CEO and founder of Taalentfy. We want to scale a technology that not only connects job supply and demand, but also helps people make better educational and career decisions from an early stage. Our focus is on building a useful digital infrastructure for schools, students and companies, based on data, real guidance and measurable results.
At Axon Desarrollo Andalucía, we invest in projects with a strong innovative component and clearly demonstrable market potential. Taalentfy brings both, supported by a robust and scalable model that directly addresses one of the major challenges of the labour market: effectively connecting training with employability. This funding will enable the company to begin a new phase of acceleration, with a financial structure aligned with its level of maturity and geared towards efficient execution of its growth plan, ´ says Macarena González, Investment Director at Axon Partners Group in Andalusia.
The company faces this new phase with clear objectives, focused on doubling the turnover achieved in 2025 and consolidating profitable and sustainable growth. At the same time, it plans to expand its client base to more than 300 active schools and universities, and to exceed 1,000 companies using its job portals and virtual job fairs in Spain and Latin America.
On the technology side, the funding will support further development of its SaaS platform, including standardising the jobs and internships portal, enhancing the virtual fairs module, and launching a new guidance platform powered by artificial intelligence to personalise learning pathways and career recommendations.
