The firm aims to demonstrate the superiority of data-driven models to help brands and businesses grow faster. Ycor's investment strategy encompasses a wide range of stages, from seed to mature investments, and spans multiple industries, including technology, healthcare services, industrials, and consumer goods. The firm's portfolio includes companies such as Solocal, a French digital leader, where Ycor became the controlling shareholder in July 2024. Maurice Lévy, as Chairman and CEO of Solocal, emphasized the importance of reorganizing the company to improve efficiency and success, aiming to leverage Solocal's exclusive assets and talent, combined with Ycor's AI expertise, to become a leader in France's local digital market.

Ycor's portfolio also includes Proximedia Nederland, acquired from Publicis Groupe in February 2019, and Regicom, which retains its autonomy going forward. The complementarity between Solocal and Regicom, brought by Ycor as part of the restructuring, enables the firm to offer a wide range of services to small and medium-sized enterprises in their relationships with customers or to win new business using all the tech and AI tools for their development.
