If those around you think you’re somewhat insane - working harder than anyone else, irrationally ambitious, and genuinely obsessed - and you happen to be starting a company, we should talk. At Antler One, we work with the continent's most obsessed founders from day zero. We are usually the first investor - committing up to €500K. From there, we can follow with up to €30M in additional capital as you scale. Our initial investment also comes with access to over €4M in perks, including major cloud and AI credit packages. Europe has produced more Olympic medalists than founders who have built 1bn+ EUR tech companies in the last 20 years. I am always on the lookout for the next outlier founder who will succeed at building a category defining company. As Partner with Antler, I am co-leading our operations across Continental Europe. Prior to this I have a background as an entrepreneur and angel investor. Before joining Antler I spent 7 years as a Co-founder and member of the executive team at Westwing, the pan-european home & living e-commerce company (IPOed 2018). Prior to that I worked several years with Rocket Internet where I led a South-East-Asian e-commerce venture and ran global product management and software development efforts. Before that I co-founded an educational children's gaming company and worked for a VC in Spain. --> Applications for our Antler One residency are open bringing together the continent's top founders: https://www.antler.co/location/germany --> Antler is hiring, check out our open positions: https://www.antler.co/careers/
We are not only the most active investor globally, but also one of the most selective - investing in ~0.3% of our dealflow across Europe and globally. We are backers of outlier companies around the world such as Airalo (Asia), Lovable (Europe) or Reebelo (US). We think of success as being a long-term partner to our portfolio, continuously investing in each round - from the very inception all the way to your Series C. We operate out of offices across 6 continents, including Austin, New York, London, Berlin, Munich, Stockholm, Bangalore, Amsterdam, Singapore, Seoul, Tokyo, and Sydney. Our global community of more than 1,500 portfolio companies covers a wide range of industries and technologies, each solving an important and urgent problem. We invest both in hardware as well as software, in B2B as well as B2C (as well as B2G, B2B2C, ...) and various sectors including climatetech, cybersecurity, deeptech, healthtech, fintech and many more. We are constantly looking for the strongest and most driven founders as they embark on the journey of building their next company.
