Frequently asked questions
Does Schenker Ventures invest outside Germany?
No geographic restrictions are confirmed. The firm's positioning inside Germany's industrial heartland makes domestic deals the natural center of gravity, but its multi-stage mandate does not preclude European or broader continental exposure. Specific portfolio geography remains undisclosed.
What sectors does Schenker Ventures likely avoid?
No explicit exclusion list has been published. However, the Ruhr location and absence of consumer-tech signaling suggest the firm is unlikely to be an active participant in pure-play software, social media, or consumer-app verticals that demand proximity to Berlin or London ecosystems.
