Funding phases

When we invest

We support companies beyond the classic “start-up” moment. If your venture sits in one of these five phases, the fund can step in.

01

Founding

From first idea to first paying customer — seed funding for a viable foundation.

02

Pivot

When the market signals something different from the plan. We fund the courage to change course — not stubborn perseverance.

03

Scaling

The business model holds; now reach is the question — growth capital for scaling steps.

04

Significant transformation

When an established company fundamentally reorients itself — climate, business model, ownership structure — we back that shift.

05

Crisis

When a worthy venture is threatened by a real crisis and recovery is realistic, we finance the breathing room it needs.
