Freiraum Ventures
Sector-agnostic and super-early pre-seed, this fund likes to be the first investor in. It has a soft filter for university or academia-linked teams, such as university spin-outs, startups from university accelerators or incubation programs, tech based on an algorithm from a PhD or thesis, or co-founders who met at university. Portfolio companies receive hands-on coaching along with access to the SCE and university ecosystem. Geographically, it is DACH-first, but also covers the UK, Switzerland, and deals in France and the rest of the EU.
