Company

Naver

Watch

Korea's largest search and commerce platform. Owner of Wallapop (Barcelona), Naver Labs Europe (Grenoble) and stakes across European marketplaces and AI.

Standing view

The desk's standing view: Naver is the Korean company with the deepest Iberian position, and it got there through stakes rather than launches. Its path at Wallapop, from minority investor to controlling shareholder, is the template for how Korean platforms enter Spain.

Catalan founders raising a round should know that a Naver cheque tends to be patient and tends to end in control. Neither is a problem if it is priced in from the first term sheet.
