Investment thesis
The firm invests in scalable, technology-driven startups across Europe, typically leading at the pre-seed stage and supporting companies through every stage of growth. It partners with founders who build with conviction, share its values and think long term, favoring fast decisions, lean feedback loops and direct collaboration. A defining feature is the Hans(wo)men community, a trusted network of founders who share experiences and support one another, convened twice a year since 2011. The firm positions itself as hands-on, mentor-driven investors rather than purely financial backers, with a track record of notable exits.
