Petsky Prunier co-advises Blacklane on its double-digit million Euro investment led by Daimler Mobility Services
December 20, 2013 (New York, NY) – Petsky Prunier is pleased to announce that Blacklane GmbH, a worldwide travel solution provider for premium transportation, has received a double-digit million Euro investment led by Daimler Mobility Services GmbH.
Blacklane, the Berlin-based worldwide travel solution provider for premium transportation, has completed an investment round in a double-digit million Euro range. The investment round involved Daimler Mobility Services GmbH, a 100% subsidiary of Daimler AG, and the existing investors RI Digital Ventures, Alstin - Alternative Strategic Investment, b-to-v Partners, and car4you Holding. This fundraising makes Blacklane one of only a few German start-ups to successfully raise double-digit amounts in recent months.
With the additional funding, Blacklane aims to create a global standard for its chauffeur service booking platform, and thereby position itself as the global market leader among chauffeur service providers. Launched in June 2012, Blacklane has since been aggressively expanding its offering around the world. The company now operates in 130 cities across 45 countries, including New York, Paris and Hong Kong.
Petsky Prunier co-advised Blacklane along with its European investment banking partner Altium.
