Kanto Announces First Phase Launch: A New Approach to Building and Supporting Businesses

Dublin, Ireland — [01/09/2025] — Kanto today announced its first phase launch launch, introducing a fresh model for supporting the next generation of businesses. Positioned at the intersection of investment, incubation, and consultancy, Kanto offers early-stage companies and established organisations a practical partner for growth.

Kanto was created to provide more than financial support. By combining hands-on commercial expertise with access to networks and strategic resources, the company aims to bridge the gap between great ideas and sustainable businesses. This approach allows founders and management teams to focus on building products and services while receiving guidance in the critical areas of revenue development, market entry, and scaling.

At its core, Kanto operates across three pillars:

• Investment: Supporting early-stage ventures with both funding and long-term alignment of interests.

• Incubation: Developing and growing businesses from within, with a focus on industries undergoing transformation such as media, security, fintech, and health tech.

• Consultancy: Providing practical commercial and revenue solutions to B2B companies and start-ups seeking to sharpen their strategies and execution.

• 
  

The launch marks the beginning of Kanto’s journey, with several projects already in motion across its target sectors. Media initiatives focus on building sustainable business models that adapt to a changing landscape, while fintech and security projects explore how technology can empower both consumers and enterprises. Health tech, meanwhile, presents opportunities to deliver solutions with impact far beyond traditional markets.

Speaking on the launch, Founder and Principal Lorcán Hanlon said:

“Kanto was built on the belief that great companies need more than capital. They need partners who understand the realities of building and scaling in competitive markets. This launch is the first step in establishing a platform where founders, clients, and partners can find the right mix of support to grow with confidence.”

The company’s identity reflects clarity and focus: a streamlined black-and-white design aesthetic matched with a modern, straightforward tone. This simplicity underlines Kanto’s mission to cut through noise and provide clear, actionable value to the businesses it supports.

While today’s announcement signals only the early launch, Kanto is already laying the groundwork for future growth and partnerships. The coming months will see expanded activity across each of its verticals, new collaborations, and the continued development of its incubation pipeline.
