T7M7 Unternehmensaufbau
Tibor von Matuschka's T7M7 is an operator-led early-stage investor in Munich, backing company-building across enterprise software and industrial tech.
T7M7 Unternehmensaufbau
T7M7 Unternehmensaufbau was founded in Munich by brothers Tibor and Simon von Matuschka. The firm's name — "Unternehmensaufbau" translating to "company building" — signals its hands-on mandate. The von Matuschkas previously founded and exited Trans-o-flex, a logistics and distribution company they scaled across Germany, before turning to institutional early-stage investing. That operator background defines the firm's self-conception as a company builder rather than a passive financial investor. The firm targets early-stage companies across Europe, with a concentration in German-speaking markets. T7M7 invests primarily at the seed and Series A stages, often as a first institutional check. The portfolio spans enterprise software, industrial technology, digital health, and applied AI. Confirmed positions include Workpath, an enterprise workforce-management platform, and Actyx, an industrial IoT software company. The firm also participates in follow-on rounds, structuring investments as direct equity with active board participation where the founding team's operating experience is directly relevant. T7M7 operates as a lean partnership from Munich, with no disclosed satellite offices. The firm has not publicly disclosed assets under management or total capital deployed. In September 2024, T7M7 participated in a funding round for Munich-based robotics startup RobCo, a deal that underscored the firm's continued focus on industrial automation and its ties to the Bavarian technical university ecosystem. The von Matuschka brothers remain the central investment decision-makers, reflecting a governance structure common among European family-backed investment offices. The firm occupies a specific niche within German venture capital: it is neither a large institutional fund with limited-partner reporting obligations nor a pure family office deploying private wealth. T7M7 operates as a registered asset manager structured around the founder-operators' direct involvement, with no publicly identified external limited partners. This hybrid posture — operator-GPs deploying what appears to be principally proprietary capital — distinguishes it from both the Berlin-based seed funds and the multi-family-office investment platforms that dominate early-stage DACH allocations.

Frequently asked questions
Who founded T7M7 and what is their background?
T7M7 was founded by brothers Tibor and Simon von Matuschka. Prior to forming the investment firm, they founded and scaled Trans-o-flex, a German logistics and distribution company, which they later exited. Their operator experience is the foundational premise of T7M7's company-building investment approach.
What stage and sectors does T7M7 target?
T7M7 invests primarily at the seed and Series A stages, often as the first institutional investor. The firm focuses on enterprise software, industrial technology, digital health, and applied AI. Its geographic focus is Europe, with a concentration in German-speaking markets.
How does T7M7 differ from a pure family office?
T7M7 is structured as a registered asset manager, not a single-family office. While the von Matuschka family's capital appears to be the primary source of funds, the firm operates with an institutional mandate to invest in external early-stage companies. The founder-operators maintain direct involvement in portfolio companies, blending family-office patience with an asset-manager structure.
Does T7M7 co-invest alongside other venture firms?
Yes. T7M7 participates in syndicated rounds and has co-invested alongside other European venture firms. Its September 2024 participation in RobCo's funding round is an example of the firm joining a consortium of external co-investors, though T7M7 does not publicly disclose a formal co-investment program.
What is T7M7's assets under management?
T7M7 has not publicly disclosed its assets under management. As a privately held asset manager without external limited-partner reporting obligations, the firm keeps its capital base confidential. No credible estimate has been published by third-party data providers.
Is T7M7 affiliated with any larger financial group or family office network?
No public record identifies T7M7 as part of a larger financial group, multi-family-office network, or external asset-management platform. The firm appears to operate independently from its Munich base under the sole direction of the von Matuschka brothers.
Where does the name 'T7M7' come from?
The name T7M7 is derived from the founders' first names: the letter 'T' for Tibor and the letter 'M' for Matuschka, combined with the number seven, which has personal significance to the founders. The legal name appends 'Unternehmensaufbau GmbH,' reflecting the firm's company-building philosophy.
