⏱️ In MedTech, 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝗰𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹, and how we spend it matters. This week, as we mark 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵 𝗗𝗮𝘆 (April 7), we’re reminded that one of the biggest challenges in healthcare isn’t just developing better treatments but reducing the administrative burden that slows them down. That’s why we’re excited to back REMATIQ, an AI-native platform that streamlines global compliance, cutting documentation by up to 90%, without compromising safety. By giving R&D teams their time back, REMATIQ helps bring diagnostics, devices, and treatments to patients faster. We’re proud to have led their €5.4M Seed round, with participation from angels Boris Lokschin (Spryker) and industry veteran Timo Fleßner, and continued support from existing investors Amino Collective and helloworld. ⚡ Big mission. Big impact. And we’re just getting started.

We’re proud to back VESTIGAS as they evolve into the financial operating system for the construction supply chain 👏 Vestigas replaces paper-based delivery notes with a fully digital workflow, covering everything from sign-off to invoice verification. It’s a much-needed step forward for an industry still reliant on manual processes. Adoption is accelerating: industry leaders like STRABAG and GC Gruppe are already rolling out the platform at scale. In 2024 alone, Vestigas has grown 10x and now serves over 80 construction companies and thousands of users. The round was led by us and followed by b2venture, with participation from existing investor Realyze Ventures and angels, including Christian Hülsewig, founder of Schüttflix.

Thanks to the team behind the EU Defence and Security's EDF Info Days 2025 for having us in the room for the panel on "Investing in Defence Technology: Opportunities and Challenges." Our colleague Jannic Meyer joined Ehsan Haghighi, CFA, CAIA, Sille Pettai, and Clément Galic, moderated by Ilan Rozenkopf, for a conversation on where the sector is heading. One key takeaway: fixing procurement might be the unlock for everything else. Align it with VC funding cycles, and you create the kind of stability that attracts more talent and leads to better products. We’re seeing the impact already: more competition, lower barriers to entry, new players coming in with fresh approaches. It’s not just about competition, though; collaboration matters just as much. Estonia’s a great example of what can happen when government, tech, and society all pull in the same direction. If you’re curious about how we’re thinking about resilience and defence tech, our newsletter is the best place to stay in the loop ( 🔗 in comments).

DefenceTech investing in Europe has tripled in just one year! Twelve months ago, only 44 VCs were active in the resilience and defence space — today, that number has grown to 127. This surge reflects a fundamental shift: European security and resilience are now key priorities for investors. In the latest European Resilience Newsletter, we explore what’s driving this momentum and elaborate on the DefenceTech Continuum 2.0 — a guide for investors navigating this evolving sector within regulatory and ESG boundaries. Because challenges remain. Despite early-stage growth, European startups still struggle to scale compared to their US counterparts. Institutional funding is increasing, but private capital and strategic partnerships are essential to closing this gap. How does Europe catch up in scaling DefenceTech? What role should governments play in supporting startups?
