Hulahoop is a Spanish entertainment-focused fintech that connects film, TV, documentary, music and live-entertainment projects with investors of all sizes, from retail backers and fans (tickets from ~€500) to family offices, funds and banks. It combines a digital investment platform with financial advisory and tax-optimisation services built around Spain's cultural investment incentives, and positions itself as building 'the financial operating system of entertainment in Europe'. Founded in 2022 out of the ISDI Accelerator and led by co-CEOs Natasha Durán and Cristina de Vierna, it has financed projects such as the MUAC Fest and Sun&Snow Weekend festivals and films including FLUXX and La Fianza, and was a South Summit finalist.
