• they fall within our areas of expertise,

[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]In Berlin, CEO Michael Weber has also been a founding member of the Business Angels Club Berlin-Brandenburg e.V. since 2004. Business angels are private individuals who use their experience to support start-ups and young entrepreneurs with advice and finance. A business angel always invests in these businesses personally and for the long term. Business angels are not allowed to charge these companies for their consultancy services; in principle, they work on a pro bono basis.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]In cases where we personally invest at the start up or fledgling stage, we also assume executive responsibility, generally for a limited period of time.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
