Investment thesis
BLOCKROCKET backs early-stage blockchain and DLT startups across all industries, believing innovation emerges when entrepreneurs and experts from established companies collaborate. Through a rolling six-month accelerator program, it handpicks 5-10 startups per year for (pre-)seed investment of EUR 100,000 at valuations of roughly EUR 1M-5M. Beyond capital, it offers matchmaking with a network of investors, corporates, consultants and tech providers, plus advisory on business development, sales and recruitment, and access to events and workshops. It provides co-working spaces in Frankfurt, Munich and Berlin and aims to become the leading early-stage blockchain investor in Germany.

Cherubic Ventures is known for investing before a startup even launches or reaches product-market fit, often as the first institutional investor, while also setting aside half of its latest fund for follow-on support all the way through pre-IPO; it was also one of the first venture firms to operate as a solo general partner and has grown into one of the largest funds run that way. Founded by Matt Cheng, who previously built two companies that each reached over $1 billion in public market value, the firm was designed from the start to invest across both the U.S. and Asia, backing early breakout companies in places like Croatia, Bangladesh, Japan, and Taiwan in addition to the U.S., with its Taipei roots still central to its identity alongside its Silicon Valley presence.
