 PolyTechnos Venture-Partners is an independent European venture capital firm based in Munich, Germany, with an office in Silicon Valley, U.S., with a track record of building world class companies. History PolyTechnos emerged from its prior focus on pure early-stage, capital intensive and high technology risk investment strategy and team. With its new fund, PolyTechnos has adapted its investment strategy to the existing opportunities in Europe in later-stage, and the experience made in traditional early-stage VC investing. PolyTechnos will execute a highly selective investment strategy. The fund will seek to invest in special situations where PolyTechnos has identified a unique opportunity which can create significant value in an average holding period of less than three years. Such situations mostly comprise later-stage investments, however might include some early-stage investments. Under its previous strategy, PolyTechnos successfully raised and invested two funds with total assets of approximately EUR 200 million. In 1999, PolyTechnos closed its first fund, Enabling Technology Limited Partnership and in 2002, PolyTechnos closed its second fund, PolyTechnos Venture Fund II. Under a hybrid concept, both funds invested in Technology and Life Sciences companies. Mission PolyTechnos' objective is to generate top quartile VC returns by being highly selective in identifying globally winning companies from its significant, often proprietary deal flow. As a lead investor, PolyTechnos intends to hold significant positions in its portfolio companies. PolyTechnos seeks to actively support exceptional founders and entrepreneurial teams, and scale them with U.S.-style marketing to global markets and exits.
