ABOUT US

WHO WE ARE

Bleu Capital is the venture arm of Jean-Pierre CHESSÉ's family office. For more than 5 years, Bleu Capital is investing in early stage companies in the US and Europe, founded by ambitious, humble, transparent and execution focused entrepreneurs. As early stage investor, we invest to actively support founders in their entrepreneurial journey (i really mean "actively" because this is our own money!). We do not bet on great projects and talk again in few years. We invest to be on your side and we will help you through challenges to ultimately build a fast growing profitable company.

JEAN-PIERRE CHESSÉ

Bleu Capital's Founder has built a zero to two hundred million dollar business in China, one of the toughest countries to succeed as an entrepreneur. Seven years after creating Sinodis, his company almost went bankrupted. However, he turned his business around by implementing best management practices with a team and culture driven by execution. This difficult yet successful journey helped him understand the enormous challenges a founder faces to construct a fast growing and profitable company. He has made all the mistakes that an entrepreneur will make. The objectives of Bleu Capital is to help you through this live-changing experience to develop a great company and transfer the lessons he has learned, without having to go through a near bankruptcy situation!

Jean-Pierre is a member of  the executive committee of the French Tech New York, as well as the President of the Board of the Investor Club of FrenchFounders, a 4,000 member community of CEOs, executives and entrepreneurs around the world.

He is an active philanthropist, being the co-founder of National Sawdust, a non-for-profit music venue  in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. He is also a board member of Action Against Hunger.
