Support during fundraising process - from creating an equity story over due diligence to closing
SERVICES
We are a independent advisory boutique with a focus on Venture Capital- and M&A-transactions for fast growing tech startups.
We support fast-growing tech ventures to accelerate their businesses. In order to execute external fundraising rounds and M&A transactions we are strategically and operationally deeply involved to optimize your “investment readiness” and company valuation as well as your financials and operations – and at the end to close the deal.
For “Mittelständler”, Family Offices and corporations, we build deal-flow and find, execute and leverage attractive M&A and investment opportunities; as well as manage existing startup portfolios (portfolio administration).
With VentureDetect we do not only advise, but are able to act as “interim” entrepreneurs and are therefore highly committed and deeply operationally involved – from designing an appropriate strategy to closing the deal (and even beyond). We act as if it is our startup, our fund or our own money involved.
»Advisors can add a lot of value when raising a round of capital, particularly at the later stages. Such advisors can help streamline the process by front-loading a lot of the diligence and preparation, allowing you to focus more closely on running the company. They can also help provide access to a broader set of investors.«

VARIOUS TARGET GROUPS – SIMILAR SCOPE OF SERVICES
The private equity business is tough. It requires extensive preparation, consistently acting professionally and typically dedicating a tremendous amount of time to finding and executing venture investment transactions and M&A deals.
Engaging with expert advisors increases the efficiency and effectiveness throughout the whole investment process, thus greatly enhancing the odds of actually closing the transactions.
As a result, VentureDetect creates the time and space for management teams to focus on their core competencies such as technology, product development, sales & marketing, building strategic synergies or expanding networks and investment opportunities – instead of using their time primarily for dealmaking.
Investment Readiness for startups, spin-offs or portfolio companies
VENTUREDETECT: BENEFITS
As entrepreneurs ourselves, we want more founders to get what they deserve: growth capital to take their company to the next level.
We facilitate a strategic fit between startups and institutional and strategic investors in order to create a strong, collaborative innovation ecosystem.
To achieve this, we provide our experience from numerous, high-value transactions as well as our network of exceptional founders and investors.
Additional resources – create free capacity
Financing rounds are very time-consuming. With our professional, project-based and time-limited support, we increase the efficiency and also generate additional resources for the management and the team – so they can focus more on the core business of the company.
Higher probability of executing deals
For venture investment and M&A deals you often only have one try. By benefiting from our experience of numerous transactions, our unrelenting dedication and our time, you significantly increase the effectiveness and thus the probability of succeeding.
Entrepreneur and investors mindset
We are not just another advisory boutique but see ourselves as hands-on entrepreneurs and investors and as part of the executive team until we reach our goals and close the deals together with our clients. We act as if it is our startup, fund or company.
Structures, frameworks and networks
Financing rounds present ideal opportunities to optimize and automate internal processes. Therefore, we are also able to support you in the areas of finance and operations, to provide frameworks, structures; as well as access to our large network of experts.

ABOUT US
We are an independent advisory boutique with a focus on Venture Capital- and M&A-transactions for both – tech startups as well as investors and established corporations. Through many years of experience with technology investments in the venture capital sector as well as operational work in startups, SMEs and corporations, we know the different worlds and can optimally manage the deviating expectations.
We work very data-driven and hands-on in due diligence quality. We see ourselves as interim co-founders who look beyond our service portfolio and can offer our clients a broad network of experts.
SUCCESS STORIES
“VentureDetect supported us at Sensorberg in cooperations with partner companies and acted as a moderator of the different interests and expectations of both sides.”
“VentureDetect supported us competently in the entire financing process, especially regarding important questions and worked out pragmatic solutions together with us. This gave us the opportunity to free up resources for our day-to-day business, something very valuable considering the enormous effort of a financing round.“
“VentureDetect provided us with a tailor-made overview of the German and Australian PropTech market and identified startups for us, with whom we later established cooperations in various forms.“
