  • Venture Capital and Start-Ups in Germany 2019 2 | Venture Capital and Start-Ups in Germany 2019 Introduction
    Growth with purpose: German Tech start-ups changing society Venture capital and start-ups in Germany 2019 2 | Venture capital and start-ups in Germany 2019 Introduction Growth with purpose: German Tech start-ups changing society Digital transformation of traditional industry sectors is unstoppable. German Tech start-ups are disrupting incumbents and rising to become new market leaders. 2019 has reached new dimensions in terms of start-up funding with top funding rounds well above prior years. Whereas three-digit million USD fundings were rarely seen historically, this now becomes the new normal in the German Tech ecosystem albeit still being led by foreign investors. We see a clear trend towards B2B business models driven by a new generation of founders with a strong engineering background. We observe an increasing awareness of founders and investors for climate and sustainability discussions. Founders, who have successfully built their first businesses, re-invest the exit proceeds and seek “purpose” along with traditional business metrics. „Doing the right thing” is the overarching goal, balancing out the key investment criteria such as IRR with Environmental, Social and Governance considerations. Berlin is accommodating the vast majority of German top funded start-ups. There is a huge opportunity for Germany to close the gap to other global Tech hubs if governmental support is accelerated and digital infrastructure is brought to the level it needs. Getting the German pension insurers as investors for venture capital would push the ecosystem going forward and help the local investors to catch up to their foreign competitors. The German market is ready to scale and well positioned to compete with other regions.
