All following data on the Munich startup scene comes \u2013 unless otherwise stated \u2013 from our Data & Insights Dashboard<\/a>If you want to learn more, you can also search the database for further insights. For easier handling, we have created a Guide<\/a> as well as Tutorial videos<\/a> created that explain the most important functions.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

After Record year 2021<\/a> and its strong fourth quarter, the Munich startup scene has returned to a calmer state over the winter. Startups from the Munich ecosystem raised a total of \u20ac462 million in funding in Q1 2022. <\/em>(We have summarized the most important investments of the quarter in this article<\/a>). In the same quarter of the previous year, this was only 356 million euros.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, in recent years, the first three months of a year have always been somewhat stronger than the previous quarter: For example, in Q1 2020 \u2013 before the coronavirus pandemic began to have its impact \u2013 Munich-based startups raised \u20ac649 million, more than in Q4 2019 (\u20ac609 million). Q1 2021, at \u20ac365 million, was also ahead of Q4 2020 (\u20ac329 million). However, the final quarter of last year, with its \u20ac1.5 billion in investments, could not be surpassed this time. For all periods considered, no figures are available for some financing rounds, which is why the actual amounts are even higher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Investment rounds in detail<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The largest investment in the now ended quarter was Xempus<\/a> The insurtech startup, formerly known as Xbav, raised \u20ac63.5 million in its Series D round. Second place went to Electrochaea<\/a> with its 36 million euro financing. The company develops systems that convert electrical energy into methane. Third place goes to Marvel Fusion<\/a>: 35 million euros flowed into the fusion energy startup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The largest share of the \u20ac461 million invested in Q1 came from investors in Germany. Around \u20ac170 million, or approximately 37 percent, came from local investors. A further 24 percent (\u20ac112 million) came from investors in other European countries. Funding from the US (14 percent, or \u20ac62 million) and Asia (13 percent, or \u20ac59 million) played a rather minor role in this quarter. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Number of financing rounds remains stable<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Although Munich-based startups were able to raise significantly less funding in the last three months than in the fourth quarter of last year, the number of financing rounds remained stable. While a total of 45 deals were completed from January to March, Q4 2021 saw 46. And there were no changes compared to the same quarter of the previous year, which also saw 45 financing rounds. The average financing amount in the last quarter was around 10.3 million euros.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Exits and new funds in the Munich startup scene<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The beginning of this year also saw six exits in the Munich startup ecosystem. For example, the Munich startup for intelligent indoor climate management Tado<\/a> has initiated its initial public offering on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange through a merger with a SPAC. And the augmented reality startup Reflect<\/a> was acquired by the US company PTC. Kumovis was also acquired. The startup has developed a 3D printer with an integrated cleanroom environment specifically for medical technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The past quarter also brought news in the fund landscape: Three new funds entered the scene in the winter. Continuation Fund HV COCO Growth<\/a> HV Capital intends to continue supporting the investor's portfolio companies with \u20ac430 million in future investments. Bonventure raised a total of \u20ac50 million for its new fund in the final closing. Bonventure IV<\/a> and thus for impact companies. And Golding Capital Partners<\/a> was able to fill its Secondaries Fund with a total of 280 million euros.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
