Specialization is at the core of what we do and enables us to make a real impact. We bring a deep understanding of B2B operations and enjoy supporting on go-to-market, scaling your organization or working on budgets and benchmarks

As European first-mover, we invest since 2013 into a new generation of European B2B software companies

Our focus is in particular on solutions enabling the digitalization of medium and large enterprises We primarily support teams working in the areas of process optimization, industry 4 0 and data-enabled solutions

We join the journey after a startup has product-market fit and generates a minimum of EUR 30k MRR with 10+ customers In this crucial phase, building a scalable sales model, creating a performance-driven HR approach, and expanding internationally are key to raising a larger subsequent growth round And we can help you get there Our initial investment is up to EUR 3m in rounds of EUR 1-5m

Great companies are built on trust, innovation and pushing boundaries. We understand that a startup is not always a straight path, but we always shoot for the moon.
