LEAP4
A specialized pre-seed and seed fund focused on 'tech that moves', including mobility, logistics, supply chain, space tech, Industry 4.0, and manufacturing. The fund invests in software or software+hardware solutions, with pure hardware possible following deep diligence, and considers AI only when it features an industrial or mobility angle. It differentiates itself through a network of 130+ industrial-expert LPs—including ex-CEOs of Porsche and Volkswagen, Renault and Bosch board members, ex-Nvidia personnel, and a former Microsoft Germany automotive lead—who provide hands-on portfolio support.
