We help young technology companies achieve swift and sustained growth. With assets under management of
€225m we have the means to do so. We support entrepreneurial vision with our know-how, but without
intervening in daily business operations. Thanks to 25+ years of team experience in venture capital and in
building companies, we discern potentials and open up new perspectives. We have the substance, tenacity and
creativity required to mutually manage difficult situations successfully. We only invest with other co-investors.
Our focus is on the start-up and early growth phase. We appreciate initial successes, such as the sales and key
accounts developed or successful product launches. Per company we invest up to €10m, usually in several
financing rounds of €500k - €3m each.
