Germany’s venture capital scene is known to be resilient, in fact, it even strengthened and grew during the pandemic. Thuringia is an excellent example of this phenomenon. Here, investment activity has been extremely robust with record numbers in 2020, which were again topped in 2021. The total amount of invested capital and the number of seven-figure rounds have been at astoundingly high levels. Altogether, it’s a strong signal for the diversity of attractive investment opportunities available in Thuringia.
In addition to a strong market environment, digitalization has provided increased transparency and visibility for high-tech companies in the region.
