The Forum

The German Venture and Growth Forum brings together institutional investors, leading German VC players, and political decision-makers for a structured dialogue on mobilizing growth capital for Germany. At its center is the question of what role venture capital plays in the emergence of new future industries, and how institutional investors are currently approaching the asset class.

The Playbook

Alongside the Forum, the German Venture and Growth Playbook will be released, developed by 24 leading funds from Germany and Europe. Across five chapters, it covers strategic allocation to venture and growth, portfolio construction, supporting investments over a twelve-year horizon, and the current market landscape. The playbook addresses insurers, pension funds, and foundations.
