„From my perspective, FTTFs deep-tech expertise combined with an hands-on attitude makes the FTTF the ideal partner for an early-stage startup such as us. I am, therefore, very much looking forward to intensify our relationship.“
Max Gulde
CEO ConstellR

Chaitanya Dhumasker
CEO MonitorFish
„FTTF has been a fantastic fit for us, when starting our business. We were a small team that had just developed a software in a research environment. FTTF helped us to develop our business model and close a Seed round with additional investors, scaling up our business significantly within the first 24 months.“
