In essence, it connects these vulnerable people who no longer wish to live alone or join a retirement home, with families ready to welcome them into their homes.

The solution has already attracted 4,500 host families and 8,000 vulnerable people who are looking for a more ‘human’ living space.

The startup intends to use the funds to respond to increasing demand, as well as develop its platform further. | To read full story, visit https://startuparound.com/read/1580815810.5125625/French-startup-CetteFamille-raises-€4-million-to-connect-vulnerable-people-and-host-families?ref=audio_experience
