Frequently asked questions
Who runs investment decisions at Liberty Ventures?
Felix and Florian Swoboda run all investment decisions as co-founders and managing directors. There is no external investment committee. The brothers' previous exits from Homebell and Barzahlen give them direct operational context for the decisions they make.
How does Liberty Ventures source deal flow?
Deal flow runs through the Swobodas' personal networks in the Berlin founder and German technology communities. The firm is not known to run a formal sourcing program and relies on its reputation as exited operators to attract early-stage founders.
Does Liberty Ventures participate in fund commitments or only direct deals?
All known activity points to direct investments only. The firm has not disclosed any fund-of-funds commitments. Its co-investment structure, when present, involves personal vehicles like Lions Venture GmbH & Co. KG.
What is Liberty Ventures's known posture on co-investments?
The firm co-invests alongside related vehicles, most notably Lions Venture GmbH & Co. KG, an entity associated with the Swoboda brothers and business partner Jakob Mähren. The group uses these structures to stack capital into deals and real estate projects without bringing in outside institutional partners.
