Timing. Relevance. Relationships.

Fundz is the only platform that reads more than a dozen real‑time signals all day, every day, so you know about new funding, new executives and new contracts within minutes of them happening, not days or weeks later like the databases you’re used to. It then combines the signals on each company, scores every company against what you offer, and weaves in your own network, so you discover new accounts first and work existing ones better.

Each morning you get the ones worth your time right now: who to reach, why now, and who you already know there. Now it answers in Claude too: ask for today’s leads, then write the note in the same window.

About

The first half of 2023 was very successful for the Lindt & Sprüngli Group. Compared to the previous year, sales grew organically by +10.1% to CHF 2.09 billion (excluding Russia). Operating profit (EBIT) increased to CHF 255.0 million, while the EBIT margin rose to 12.2%. Net income amounted to CHF 204.5 million. The outlook for the financial year 2023 has been revised upwards to reflect sales growth in the range of 7–9% and profit margin expansion of 30–50 basis points. 2022 key highlights include the expansion of the company's responsible sourcing of cocoa and other key raw materials; the expansion of its cocoa sustainability program, which now includes over 112,000 farmers; the submission of its science-based climate targets for validation; and its strengthened commitment to respecting human rights throughout the supply chain.  Read more in our Sustainability Report 2022.
