„From my perspective, FTTFs deep-tech expertise combined with an hands-on attitude makes the FTTF the ideal partner for an early-stage startup such as us. I am, therefore, very much looking forward to intensify our relationship.“

Max Gulde

CEO ConstellR

„I am very happy to have FTTF as our investors right since start of our journey. They have been always accessible as a partner and were instrumental in finding the right follow-on investor.“

Chaitanya Dhumasker

CEO MonitorFish

„FTTF has been a fantastic fit for us, when starting our business. We were a small team that had just developed a software in a research environment. FTTF helped us to develop our business model and close a Seed round with additional investors, scaling up our business significantly within the first 24 months.“

Max Limper

Co-Founder DGG

„FTTF has been at our side as a reliable partner since our foundation and a short time later also as an investor. Thanks to the fast and straightforward pre-seed financing, we were able to focus 100% on our product and expand our team, thereby acquiring significant customers.“

Vanessa Wolff

“The FTTF placed its trust in our company at a very early stage to successfully bring our technology to market. Since then, FTTF has been a reliable and committed partner working with us on the further financing and development of the business.”

Marian Breitenbücher

Managing Director Highline
