Lendorse
Better than a student loan
Lendorse is an emerging tech startup tackling the talent bottleneck in Europe. They offer a digital platform combining income-share financing, career support, and integration tools for skilled immigrants.
Through this product, Lendorse addresses labor shortages, improves social mobility, and drives inclusive economic growth.

In 2025, PI participated in Lendorse’s seed round.
In 2022, Lendorse was founded. In the same year, Lendorse was part of the Techstars program and the company started funding the first group of students.
The company was awarded the Skills and Education Guarantee by the European Investment Fund (EIF) - a strong endorsement of its mission and model.
Early 2025, Lendorse raised an equity round. With this round, Lendorse will further develop the product and scale the team to meet growing demand.
Income Share Agreements
Lendorse provides Income Share Agreements (ISAs) to students from developing and emerging countries, enabling them to finance their education and living costs in Europe. By allowing students to repay a fixed percentage of their income after securing a well-paying job, Lendorse addresses the financial barriers that prevent talented individuals from accessing higher education.
The company differentiates itself through its proprietary underwriting model, which assesses creditworthiness without relying on traditional credit scores or collateral.
