Hanse Ventures is a Hamburg-based company builder and venture capital investor founded in 2010 that serves as an institutional co-founder for digital startups. The firm develops its own internet and mobile business concepts and implements them with suitable founder teams, providing comprehensive operational support throughout the entire journey from idea validation to exit. Hanse Ventures positions itself as more than a traditional investor by actively working within portfolio companies with a 30-strong team of digital experts who provide hands-on support in online marketing, product development, business intelligence, service center operations, HR, design, and PR. The company builder focuses on identifying dull, complex niches that are yet unaffected by internet efficiency and aims to become category leaders in those markets. Hanse Ventures offers office space in Hamburg's HafenCity, access to extensive investor networks, and invests in financing rounds from its own funds and co-investment vehicles. The firm welcomes founders with or without ideas and offers an Entrepreneur in Residence program for aspiring entrepreneurs to learn startup fundamentals before launching their own ventures.
