another.vc is an early-stage venture capital firm based in Germany that invests in European B2B startups. As a first-money backer, it targets founders who combine customer focus with deep industry or research expertise. The firm provides up to €250,000 in initial capital and works alongside entrepreneurs through go-to-market planning and future fundraising efforts. By keeping the process lean and founder-friendly, another.vc aims to build long-term partnerships without imposing heavy requirements for formal pitch decks.
Investment decisions are driven by direct conversations rather than slides or elaborate presentations. another.vc seeks non-obvious products, including web-based software tools and lab-developed hardware, that address real business challenges. The team looks for startups in their first funding round, whether they have a small amount of support from friends and family or an accelerator grant. Companies must be registered in Europe or founded by entrepreneurs with European roots. Beyond capital, another.vc offers hands-on advice on market entry strategies, introductions to industry contacts, and ongoing guidance to help founders refine their value proposition and scale operations.
Clean technology and battery innovations are not core themes for the firm, though one portfolio company focuses on eliminating wastewater pollutants in an eco-friendly way. another.vc does not promote a dedicated strategy for clean tech or energy storage, preferring to maintain flexibility across a range of B2B solutions. By staying sector-agnostic, the firm can support projects that show strong customer demand and clear paths to revenue, regardless of whether they fall under traditional technology categories.
