The studio takes a 30% equity stake after the first funding round in exchange for approximately €800,000 in initial investment per startup. Hexa operates multiple programs: Hexa Start for launching new companies from scratch, and Hexa Scale for supporting mature startups (€1-10M ARR) that need acceleration. The name Hexa references the hexadecimal system, symbolizing the bridge between humans and machines.
