Investment thesis
Mätch VC invests early in highly technical teams addressing complex B2B challenges across Europe, deploying from its €49M Fund I, often before a company is incorporated. It favors moving quickly via convertible loan agreements (CLAs) but will also lead, co-lead, or follow priced equity rounds. Its core focus is deep tech, academic spinouts, and complex hardware or software engineering where the underlying science provides the moat, with occasional classic SaaS investments. Initial tickets range from €200k to €1M, with room for more in exceptional cases, spanning pre-seed to seed. The firm leverages its network of German industrial family businesses as an advantage for founders. It explicitly avoids biotech, pharma, B2C, and food.
