early-stage venture capital fund based in Munich with a focus on B2B software. Since its inception in 2012, Alstin has been investing across Europe in fast-growing, late-seed and Series A software companies. Initial ticket sizes typically range between \u20ac2m and \u20ac8m. At the heart of its strategy is an &#8220;all-in&#8221; approach: alongside capital, Alstin actively supports founding teams through sales coaching (KPIs, go-to-market strategy, and sales force development), social media, PR and marketing assistance, strategic advice on scaling and expansion, and access to relevant industry contacts, such as potential clients and partners.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_column tdi_35  wpb_column vc_column_container tdc-column td-pb-span6\">\n<style scoped>\n\/* custom css - generated by TagDiv Composer *\/\n\n\/* custom css - generated by TagDiv Composer *\/\n.tdi_35{\r\n                    vertical-align: baseline;\r\n                }.tdi_35 > .wpb_wrapper,\r\n\t\t\t\t.tdi_35 > .wpb_wrapper > .tdc-elements{\r\n\t\t\t\t    display: block;\r\n\t\t\t\t}.tdi_35 > .wpb_wrapper > .tdc-elements{\r\n\t\t\t\t    width: 100%;\r\n\t\t\t\t}.tdi_35 > .wpb_wrapper > .vc_row_inner{\r\n\t\t\t\t    width: auto;\r\n\t\t\t\t}.tdi_35 > .wpb_wrapper{\r\n\t\t\t\t    width: auto;\r\n\t\t\t\t    height: auto;\r\n\t\t\t\t}\n<\/style><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\" ><div class=\"wpb_wrapper td_block_single_image td_block_wrap td_block_wrap vc_single_image tdi_36  td-single-image- td-pb-border-top td_block_template_1 \"  data-td-block-uid=\"tdi_36\"><span \r\n                            class=\"td_single_image_bg\" \r\n                            style=\"background-image: url('https:\/\/startupvalley.news\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2026\/07\/SevenVentures_WBM_Black_pos_1c.jpg');\" ><\/span>\n<style>\n\/* custom css - generated by TagDiv Composer *\/\n.tdi_36 .td_single_image_bg{\r\n\t\t\t\t\theight: 150px;\r\n\t\t\t\t\tpadding-bottom: 0;\r\n\t\t\t\t\r\n                background-repeat: no-repeat;\r\n\t\t\t\t\r\n                background-position: center top;\r\n\t\t\t\t}.tdi_36:hover .td_single_image_bg:before{\r\n                    opacity: 0;\r\n                }\n<\/style><\/div><div class=\"td_block_wrap td_block_text_with_title tdi_37 tagdiv-type td-pb-border-top td_block_template_1\"  data-td-block-uid=\"tdi_37\" ><div class=\"td-block-title-wrap\"><\/div><div class=\"td_mod_wrap td-fix-index\"><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.commerceandventures.com\/investment-stages\/sevenventures\">SevenVentures<\/a> is part of ProSiebenSat.1 Media SE and serves as the Group\u2019s investment arm, operating a flexible investment model based on Media-for-Equity and Media-Convertible structures.

The principle is simple: show progress and get everything else you need.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"2\">Startups regularly share their updates, receive feedback from experienced mentors, and thereby gain visibility within the investor network and the wider community. Last year, the Pioneers Club hosted Germany&#8217;s largest online startup challenge, featuring over 70 startups and more than 70 mentors. Following the event, several of the participating startups successfully raised funding.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"3\">Germany&#8217;s largest startup challenge is planned to take place again this year. The exact dates will be announced in due course, and the application phase is not yet open.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"4\">The platform is complemented by Makers Home in Neumarkt, a founder house designed for co-working, co-living, and building together. The ultimate goal is to identify strong founders at an early stage and provide them with exactly what they need: mentors, capital, visibility, community, and the space to make genuine progress.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_column tdi_51  wpb_column vc_column_container tdc-column td-pb-span6\">\n<style scoped>\n\/* custom css - generated by TagDiv Composer *\/\n\n\/* custom css - generated by TagDiv Composer *\/\n.tdi_51{\r\n                    vertical-align: baseline;\r\n                }.tdi_51 > .wpb_wrapper,\r\n\t\t\t\t.tdi_51 > .wpb_wrapper > .tdc-elements{\r\n\t\t\t\t    display: block;\r\n\t\t\t\t}.tdi_51 > .wpb_wrapper > .tdc-elements{\r\n\t\t\t\t    width: 100%;\r\n\t\t\t\t}.tdi_51 > .wpb_wrapper > .vc_row_inner{\r\n\t\t\t\t    width: auto;\r\n\t\t\t\t}.tdi_51 > .wpb_wrapper{\r\n\t\t\t\t    width: auto;\r\n\t\t\t\t    height: auto;\r\n\t\t\t\t}\n<\/style><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\" ><div class=\"wpb_wrapper td_block_single_image td_block_wrap td_block_wrap vc_single_image tdi_52  td-single-image- td-pb-border-top td_block_template_1 \"  data-td-block-uid=\"tdi_52\"><a \r\n\t\t\tclass=\"td_single_image_bg\" \r\n\t\t\tstyle=\"background-image: url('https:\/\/startupvalley.news\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2026\/07\/S-S-Ventures-Logo-in-Dunkelgrau-und-mit-Strich-in-Grun-und-freigestellt-1.png');\" \r\n\t\t\thref=\"https:\/\/www.seedandspeed.com\/\"  ><\/a>\n<style>\n\/* custom css - generated by TagDiv Composer *\/\n.tdi_52 .td_single_image_bg{\r\n\t\t\t\t\theight: 100px;\r\n\t\t\t\t\tpadding-bottom: 0;\r\n\t\t\t\t\r\n                background-repeat: no-repeat;\r\n\t\t\t\t\r\n                background-position: center top;\r\n\t\t\t\t}body .tdi_52 .td_single_image_bg{\r\n\t\t\t\tbackground-size: auto;\r\n\t\t\t\t}.tdi_52:hover .td_single_image_bg:before{\r\n                    opacity: 0;\r\n                }\n<\/style><\/div><div class=\"td_block_wrap td_block_text_with_title tdi_53 tagdiv-type td-pb-border-top td_block_template_1\"  data-td-block-uid=\"tdi_53\" ><div class=\"td-block-title-wrap\"><\/div><div class=\"td_mod_wrap td-fix-index\"><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.seedandspeed.com\/\">seed + speed Ventures<\/a> is a pre-seed and seed venture capital fund focusing on enterprise, B2B software, and hardware-enabled software startups.
