MiCuento

micuento.com ↗ ·Barcelona ·Series A

MiCuento is a Barcelona-based direct-to-consumer platform that produces personalized children's books and audio stories, where the child (and their family) becomes the protagonist — customers choose the story, the character's physical traits, dedication and photos, and receive a hardcover book. Founded in 2014 by Muriel Bourgeois and Javier Falco, it sells across Spain, Mexico, Argentina and the US and says more than 600,000 families have bought its books. It raised a €2.5M round led by French impact fund Impact Partners in 2020 (that fund's first deal in Spain), after earlier backing from Banco Sabadell's BStartup, Intelectium Ventures, Catalan public bodies and business angels; total disclosed funding is roughly $3M.
