Our approach
Building a venture is tough, sexy, exhausting, funny, annoying, complex, time-consuming, a team-effort, lonely, challenging, creative, rewarding and frankly the best thing you will ever do.
Succeeding and failing will be your everyday life – making mistakes will be 80% of what you do. Just make sure, to learn from every single one of those mistakes. We have been through most of what you will experience, so our job is to tell you about our mistakes and provide guidance every step of the way.
Our background
After starting several companies ourselves or supporting others, we want to offer a new, lean approach to startups. Establishing a new mentality, when building hightech startups, to make the process more individual, efficient and fun. Great startups need great passion – passion goes hand in hand with fun.
Our team
Besides our experience as entrepreneurs, all of us have been working as mentors and advisors for startups for many years. From working in corporate bootcamps like Burda Bootcamp to the European Space Agencies on accelerator to public institutions like Universities, our background is always focussed on early stage ventures.
