Our investment portfolio
We kicked-off our first startup investment in 2020
Startup investments are quite new for us, so our portfolio is slowly building up. We invested in the first startup at the end of 2020, and are willing to place another 3-5 investments per year. The ticket size is low (EUR 50 - 150k), but combined with our expertise and willingness to support the founders it can be a great boost. Currently, we are screening many potential startups, so expect this to fill-up soon.
If you are interested to find your startup in our portfolio, we are happy to hear from you.
