Get to know usCASH
We are an early-stage VC dedicated to investing in technology companies that have the potential to enable or disrupt major industries. Our strategy centers on getting involved early, primarily focusing on Seed stages, with occasional Series A initial investments. We only invest in cases in which we are confident to take the lead, but we don’t always have to do so. We feel comfortable in strong consortia with other VCs and business angels.
Technology plays the keyrole in tackling the most pressing challenges of our time and in improving people’s working and living conditions. We work with the best entrepreneurial teams and visionaries, capable of crafting transformative technology. We are a b2b investor. Our focus spans across SaaS/software, IoT, digital solutions, medtech, biotech, new materials and greentech/cleantech. We invest in ventures with a convincing technology core providing strong competitive edge and serving important customers needs.

Proximity
We are an ecosystem player, providing a strong regional presence and deep-rooted network. It‘s a crucial part of our mission to offer hands-on support and be there in person when we are needed. We want to keep our approach authentic and reliable. That‘s why we focus our investment activities within a rough two-hour reach from us – that‘s Rhineland area (Germany) and neighbouring Netherlands and Belgium. Given a strong fit and extra conviction, we’re open to investments across whole Germany.
The early stages are the period for a startup in which future success is defined. Finding product-market fit and an effective go-to-market strategy early are keys to market dominance. We‘re passionate about sharing our insights in that. The critical role of frequent social interaction cannot be overstated.
Network and access are among the most crucial offerings an investor can provide. We facilitate exclusive interaction wtih the established economy via the S-UBG Group, giving young startups access to their first potential customers or partners. The network includes over 150 SME companies resulting from 30 years of investment experience of S-UBG.
