caesar.

We've seen a lot of non-European VCs pull back funding for startups in the region, over the last couple of years. This caused a vacuum in early stage funding - key to driving innovation and giving #founders the support they need in those early days. That's why caesar. was born. As experienced angel investors and founders ourselves, we understand how important access, funding and support are to sustainable growth. #weinvestbeforeinvesting #VCinsights #startups #entrepreneurs | 👏 Managing Partners: Carolin & Gregor

⚡️ We’re excited to be participating alongside 200 VCs in the Europe-wide Female Founder Office Hours on November 7th 2024, led by Playfair Capital in collaboration with Carta and Microsoft for Startups. 🤝🏼 To date, this initiative has brought together over 2,500 founders for 10,000 one-to-one investor meetings across nine editions.

🚀 We are beyond proud to share that our portfolio startup MEDEA Biopharma represented Rheinland-Pfalz at the Startup Germany Summit 🎉   As the first startup summit hosted by the German government, this event illustrated the commitment to fostering innovation and growth.

With 900 attendees – including VCs, startups, and intermediaries – the summit created a lively space for networking and collaboration 🤝🏼   💡🗣️ A key highlight was the announcement of the WIN Initiative ("Initiative für Wachstums- und Innovationskapital"), designed to increase private venture and growth capital in Germany. The summit also marks a significant step in the implementation of the German government's Start-up Strategy, approved in summer 2022. According to the second progress report released today, 81% of the measures have already been completed.
