Prequel Ventures

Markus Börner, the founding general partner, and Mathias Bosse, the other founding partner, lead investment decisions. Börner’s background is venture investing at seed + speed Ventures, while Bosse’s is operational — he founded scm-startups.com and chairs the Rhein-Main chapter of BVL. Advisory board members such as Paige Wei-Cox at SAP and Michael Wallraven at Logward can influence deal evaluation but the two founders control the investment process.

The firm’s sourcing model exploits community embeddedness rather than cold outreach. Mathias Bosse chairs the Rhein-Main chapter of BVL, Germany’s largest logistics association, and is listed in finexpert, a peer network. These positions act as a referral engine for supply chain founders in the DACH region. The advisory board’s enterprise connections, especially through SAP and Logward, add a second, product-validated sourcing layer.

Prequel Ventures is not a subsidiary or affiliate of BVL. Founding partner Mathias Bosse holds a volunteer leadership position as Chapter Chairperson for Rhein-Main within BVL, which gives the fund preferential visibility into the local logistics startup ecosystem. The firm is also a signatory supporter of the EU-INC petition, an initiative unrelated to BVL that advocates for a pan-European corporate legal entity.
