LGiLab invests in Bahu.com

We are announcing today a new investment in French startup Bahu.com promoting a European social network for young students across Europe (special south and eastern)focusing on promoting talents.

Bahu is a French startup created by two students and backed by Oleg Tscheltzoff a serial and successful internet entrepreneur i have known for some time now.

We know, the space is not virgin but we were impressed with Bahu achievements only a few months after they launched (already 2 million unique visitors and present in more than 6 countries in 4 months).

Investing in non Israeli related startup is not the first purpose of the Lab, but this was an opportunity that was not easy to ignore. We are committed to support israeli entrepreneurship. We already financed 5 israeli related projects and hopefully more soon.

I am happy to serve on the board of Bahu and face some very tough challenges that we have in front of us.

Btw why "Bahu"? In cool young slang french it means "High School"
