Trind Invests in Spanish Circular Economy Startup Hamelyn

Trind invests in Madrid-based Hamelyn, a tech firm driving the circular economy for books, music, and games with €2M in new funding.

Trind invests in Hamelyn, a Spanish tech company specializing in the buying and selling of second-hand cultural products, such as books, music, movies, and video games. The company closed a funding round exceeding two million euros, led by Inclimo Climate Tech, and joined by Trind, family offices, and business angels.

Driving the Cultural Circular Economy

Founded in Madrid four years ago, Hamelyn has established itself as an innovative, responsible, and profitable alternative in the second-hand cultural products sector. Its model integrates proprietary technology, optimized logistics, and a value proposition focused on savings and sustainability.

The transaction marks a key milestone for the company, which, after making a significant investment in automation and robotics at its Coslada center, is now ready to scale its circular economy model both in Spain and in new markets.

The investment will allow Hamelyn to strengthen its capacity to recover and market nearly-new cultural products, expanding the positive environmental impact of its model. Part of the funds will be used to boost product acquisition campaigns and incentivize the buying and selling of second-hand items.
