London-based specialist credit asset manager and technology platform, Fasanara, has secured a majority stake in Pollen VC, a leading provider of non-dilutive working capital solutions to the mobile gaming and app sector. With over $4 billion in total assets, Fasanara’s strategic move aims to bolster Pollen VC’s standing as a key player in financing mobile app and game developers.
Pollen VC is set to function as a stand-alone digital platform under the umbrella of the Fasanara Group.

We look forward to the next chapter as part of the Fasanara Group,” he said.
Fasanara’s CEO, Francesco Filia, emphasized the positive impact of this financing model on gaming and app studios, highlighting its efficiency and attractive risk-adjusted returns. “We are delighted to welcome Pollen VC into the Fasanara family. After working with Martin and the team since early 2021, we have seen how this type of financing can really help gaming and app studios scale efficiently, whilst offering strong risk-adjusted returns for our investors,” Filia said.
The move signifies Fasanara’s commitment to facilitating deeper market access and underscores its role as a key player in the global fintech-powered lending ecosystem. As Pollen VC becomes an integral part of the Fasanara family, the joint venture is poised to redefine the landscape of non-dilutive working capital solutions for the thriving mobile app and gaming sector.
