We take minority stakes alongside a lead investor and stay for the long run. No fund life, no pressure to deploy, no quarter to fill.
We contribute ideas, experience and network in close coordination with management. No weekly check-in, no seat we did not earn.
Moderate risk and durability come before quick returns. There is no fund life driving us toward an exit date.
Ten acquisitions, seven brands integrated, 300 people across five countries. Transactions we carried out, not theory.
Deutsche Tech Ventures is one of three vehicles. Early-stage investments run through Horch Ventures. Advisory work and M&A run through promerget. Growth capital runs here.
Some of our investments come out of promerget mandates. Where that is the case, the advisory mandate ends before the investment is signed, no commission is charged on capital we provide ourselves, and every co-investor is told in the first conversation.
