The companies we are proud to partner with are solving some of the world's most complex challenges.

We back deep-tech founders early.

From the heart of Europe's deep-tech innovation in Munich, we are UnternehmerTUM's pre-seed/seed fund. As a highly selective, first-institutional investor, we partner with elite teams building category-defining companies to solve some of the world's most complex challenges. We specialize in hard tech and the code that drives it, financing scalable B2B technologies with billion-euro potential to help founders move groundbreaking scientific innovations from the lab to the market.

Founder-First by Design.

  • Founder-Friendly Capital: We invest via a convertible loan with no valuation cap, no discount, and no interest. You get the capital you need without premature valuation discussions.

     

  • True Partnership with MFN: A Most Favoured Nation (MFN) clause is standard. If you grant more advantageous terms to a future investor, we automatically adopt them. This ensures we are always on the same side of the table.

     

  • Seamless Conversion: The loan automatically converts into equity at your first qualified financing round, or at a four-year maturity date, whichever comes first.

We partner with founders who:

  • An Inception Point: You're from the TUM or UnternehmerTUM ecosystem, a place where deep-tech breakthroughs are born. But it's your ambitious, world-changing vision that truly sets you apart.

     

  • The Will to Build and to Sell: You are a complete team. You have the technical genius to create something entirely new and the commercial acumen to build a global company around it.

     

  • Evidence of Inevitability: You've moved beyond the theoretical. You have tangible proof—in the form of early customer traction—that you're not just building something interesting, but something essential.
