BayBG Venture Capital is the venture capital arm of BayBG Bayerische Beteiligungsgesellschaft mbH, one of Germany's most established private investment companies, founded in 1972 and headquartered in Munich at Königinstraße 23. With over €300 million invested and a 50+ year track record of success, BayBG is backed by a broad group of shareholders including well-known Bavarian banks, insurance companies, and businesses — ensuring independence and stability. The VC team currently manages a portfolio of 37 technology companies.
BayBG Venture Capital invests €1M to €10M per company, primarily in Series A and follow-on rounds for Bavarian tech startups. The firm operates as an evergreen fund — free from the time restrictions, exit pressure, and liquidity constraints of classic VC fund structures. BayBG invests sector-agnostically in B2B and B2B2C business models, typically entering after an initial business angel seed round, and expects six-figure annual revenues or corresponding recurring monthly revenues at the time of investment. The firm also offers venture debt to mature startups near break-even.
Portfolio companies include NavVis, IDnow, tado°, Rebike Mobility, EcoG, happybrush, Soley, SUSHI BIKES, DcubeD, AlfaDocs, and many more. BayBG guides portfolio companies to ideal exits — whether to private equity growth investors like Corsair Capital, strategic buyers like Siemens, or to an IPO. The firm brings deep experience from 60+ startup investments and 80+ follow-on financings, plus access to BayBG's broader Mittelstand portfolio of 500+ Bavarian companies — a powerful network of potential customers, partners, and advisors.
