GMPVC German Media Pool

GMPVC German Media Pool GmbH sets up new EUR 15m venture capital fund to support its media for equity portfolio and invest in the next generation of consumer startups.

We are very proud to announce the first closing of our new EUR 15m cash venture capital fund today. The new fund, GMPVC Opportunities I, is focused on consumer-facing and B2C-enabling startups of any stage across Europe. Investors in the first closing are family offices and media groups, including several long-standing partners and shareholders of German Media Pool.
 
With this new fund, we now have the capability to support our existing portfolio investments in cash rounds, after an initial media for equity investment. By investing media as well as cash, German Media Pool can now act as a specialised partner for consumer-facing companies and their enablers across all entrepreneurial stages.
 
In the last years, we are proud to have worked hand in hand with the founders of some of the most successful consumer-facing startups in Europe, including ABOUT YOU, momox AG, CLARK, Sanity Group and Grover. In order to accelerate their growth plans, we provide our startups with a tailored bouquet of premium media. Our new venture fund allows us to extend our range of support to our founders on their journey in building Europe’s next generation consumer businesses.
 
Both funds, German Media Pool and GMPVC Opportunities I, will be led by the same set of Berlin-based Partners, Aljoscha Kaplan and Dennis Ahrling. Aljoscha founded German Media Pool in 2011 together with Niko Waesche . Dennis joined the fund in 2018 and was today promoted to Partner position, at both the media for equity fund German Media Pool as well as the cash fund GMPVC Opportunities I. They are supported by Head of Finance Christina Meyer-Grunwald, Media Operations Manager Carolin Strelow and Investment Associate Wen Hao Cheok.
