Investment thesis
EGORA describes itself as an active, hands-on industrial and investment group rather than a passive financier. It backs entrepreneurial founders with technology-specific expertise and personal involvement to help them build internationally leading companies. The firm invests up to five million euros in early- and mid-stage companies, primarily in Germany and the USA, and maintains a narrow investment focus on broadband communication, industrial optronics, software and web services, SaaS-enabled marketplaces, and life science platform technologies. Founders working with EGORA gain access to experienced entrepreneurs and high-tech specialists with extensive connections to people and markets.
