Founded in March 2011, German Media Pool is Germany's leading independent media for equity fund combining television, out of home, print and radio. We have invested more than 300 million Euro in gross media volume into nearly 40 startups, three of which have achieved “Unicorn” status. We have had numerous successful exits, 3 of them in IPOs, with more to come.
INVESTMENT MODEL & CRITERIA
- Focus: We primarily invest in consumer-facing companies at a series A or later stage. Strong co-investors and a good fit to our media's target groups are a must.
