Real estate companies \u2013 similar to those previously seen in retail or the finance and insurance sectors \u2013 must now understand and capitalize on these challenges as opportunities.

Furthermore, so-called corporate VC funds suffer from adverse selection because good startups don&#039;t want to commit to a single strategic investor, lest they exclude their competitors as future customers and\/or buyers.&quot;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Based on their analysis, the initiators Marius Marschall von Bieberstein and the Venture Capital Family Office <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cooperativa.vc\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">COOPERATIVA Venture Group<\/a>to combine precise venture capital know-how with deep sector knowledge of the real estate industry and to invest in PropTech startups as an independent venture capitalist.<\/p>\n<h3>Venture partners provide broad assessment expertise<\/h3>\n<p>Additional entrepreneurs with relevant experience have joined the PropTech1 Ventures project as venture partners, ensuring broader assessment expertise and greater market access. These include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Andreas Wende, who has held senior positions at real estate companies such as JLL and Savills and is a business angel with well-known PropTech companies such as Allthings and EVANA in advisory roles,<\/li>\n<li>Christian Vollmann, CEO &amp; Founder of the Neighborhood Network <a href=\"https:\/\/nebenan.de\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">nebenan.de<\/a> and \u201cBusiness Angel of the Year 2017\u201d,<\/li>\n<li>Kristofer Fichtner, a successful PropTech entrepreneur who has already achieved an exit with his shares as co-founder of the energy efficiency start-up Thermondo and<\/li>\n<li>Nicholas Neerpasch, who, after a career as an architect and managing director of the GFP Group and CEO &amp; co-founder of the modernization management marketplace Doozer, combines traditional real estate project management and PropTech innovation.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>As Senior Advisors to the COOPERATIVA Venture Group, the experienced business angels Andreas von Blottnitz and Jan Henric Buettner have also invested in PropTech1 Ventures.<\/p>\n<h3>Bringing together the \u201cbest of both worlds\u201d<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Nikolas Samios<\/strong>, Founding Partner of PropTech1 Ventures, comments on the strategy that is manifested in the selection of venture partners:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&quot;Our approach is to combine the &#039;best of both worlds&#039; of venture capital methodology and in-depth industry expertise.
