Empowering Tomorrow’s Innovators from founders to students! Last week, we had the opportunity to host students from WHU – Otto Beisheim School of Management and RWTH Aachen University at the Best Nights VC gallery office. Both institutions are home to some of Germany’s most forward-thinking young talents, and it was a pleasure to exchange ideas with them. Robert and Adrian welcomed the group with an inside look at how Best Nights VC operates. From our origins as the venture arm of Mast-Jägermeister SE to the vision that guides our investments, they walked the students through how we think about the future of nightlife and why we back consumer-centric technologies that help people connect in the real world. When asked about our KPIs we could once again proudly say that, what makes our approach so unique is our focus on meaningful impact. We don’t just consider financial outcomes; we care about how our portfolio companies create memorable experiences and foster genuine human interaction - Our Northstar KPI: Best Nights Created. The visit ended with an engaging conversation around the students’ own ideas, questions, and early ventures. Their curiosity and ambition reinforce why it’s so valuable to open our doors to emerging innovators. These exchanges always spark new perspectives on both sides. A big thank you to the students from WHU – Otto Beisheim School of Management and RWTH Aachen University and for spending the morning with us. A special thank you to Friederike Westmeier and Malte Brettel for organizing this with us! We’re excited to see where your entrepreneurial paths lead. If you're working on ideas that blend nightlife culture, community, and technology, the Best Nights VC team is always open for a conversation. Here’s to Open Doors for Open Minds! 🖤🪩 #BestNightsVC #BNVC #Jägermeister #VentureCapital
