Paris-based startup is powering mid-market factories across Europe with a fast, flexible ERP platform built for modern industrial complexity
Europe’s mid-sized manufacturers, long the driving force behind the region’s industrial economy, are at a crossroads. Intensified global competition, rising supply chain complexity, and mounting pressure to digitize have exposed the limits of traditional ERP systems. Bonx, a Paris-based startup, is rising to the challenge with an AI-driven ERP platform built specifically for modern manufacturing realities.
Today, Bonx announced an $8.6 million seed funding round led by 9900 Capital, with participation from Kima Ventures, Purple, OSS Ventures, and Dynamo Ventures.
Founded in 2022 by Alexandre Barroux and Rémi Beges within OSS Ventures, Bonx delivers a modern ERP solution tailored to the needs of mid-market manufacturers. Its platform blends no-code configurability, advanced AI functionality, and rapid implementation—enabling companies to digitize their production, procurement, logistics, and quality operations in a matter of weeks. Bonx is already gaining traction among French, Italian, and Spanish manufacturers, including suppliers to Décathlon and breakout brands like French Bloom.
“Our mission remains clear: empower manufacturers to simplify and take control of their operations through technology that adapts to their precise needs,” said Alexandre Barroux, CEO of Bonx in a press release. “This funding propels us into our next phase – becoming Europe’s definitive ERP leader for mid-sized manufacturers, expanding our successful model from France into new key markets, while scaling in Italy and Spain.”
What sets Bonx apart is speed and adaptability. While conventional ERP rollouts often take months or even years—and typically require high-cost consultants—Bonx users are seeing full deployment in as little as three to ten weeks. The platform’s modular, visual interface is intuitive even for non-technical users, allowing factory-floor teams to own and shape their workflows without being dependent on IT departments.
This shift comes at a critical time. Manufacturers across France, Germany, Italy, and Spain are wrestling with tightening regulations, increasingly fragmented supply chains, and aggressive climate goals. Many remain trapped in outdated systems ill-suited for today’s fast-moving demands. The result: essential operations still managed in spreadsheets or confined to inflexible software not built for agility or integration.
Bonx is providing a way forward. Its platform is purpose-built for the complexity of European manufacturing—delivering operational transparency and control without requiring companies to abandon trusted finance or CRM tools. It bridges the gap between traditional systems and modern needs.
“By focusing exclusively on manufacturing and supply-chain operations, we’ve built Bonx to integrate effortlessly with existing tools, particularly general ledgers and CRM solutions that our customers already rely on and love,” said Rémi Beges, CTO of Bonx. “Manufacturers don’t have to replace the systems they’re accustomed to; Bonx complements and enhances their stack and acts as their operational backbone.”
Investor interest reflects the urgency manufacturers are feeling on the ground. “Bonx is redefining the ERP landscape by combining extraordinary implementation speeds with genuinely impactful AI-driven capabilities, driving enormous efficiencies within an industry plagued by legacy software,” commented Juliette Sylvain, Principal at 9900 Capital. “We are excited to support Bonx as it sets a new industry standard and scales across Europe.”
With the new capital, Bonx plans to deepen its product capabilities, grow its team, and scale its operations across Italy and Spain—two of the continent’s most vital manufacturing hubs. The company is responding to clear market demand for nimble ERP systems that work with, not against, factory operations.
Bonx’s goal is to become the operational foundation for Europe’s manufacturing future, building digital infrastructure that evolves in step with the factory floor.
