Active entrepreneurs
Entrepreneurs help entrepreneurs

A financial investment in most case is not sufficient to build a successful company, especially when the company faces competitive and fast growing markets. In depth experience is often lacking in the early stages for making the right decisions. Finance-sit-wait does hardly ever work and does not reflect our entrepreneurial spirit. We want to be actively involved. EGORA offers this very special support to their portfolio companies.

Our team includes entrepreneurs, who have started and successfully managed their own companies. We know the dynamics of high-tech markets and can empathize with entrepreneurial passion and vision. We know how to efficiently support new business ideas by advising our partner companies during the value-adding process from product development to production, launch, sales and marketing.

High-Tech Specialization
Detailed expertise in core technologies

We know from our experience that an advanced in-depth knowledge in key technologies is decisive for success. The better you understand the technology, the more ideas and options for action you will have. Our passion for High-Tech is the best basis for understanding advanced technological development.

We concentrate on some specific fields, in order to maintain and develop our detailed knowledge. We have years of experience in the following high-tech markets:

This focus allows us, as an investment partner, to better understand technical developments of our partners. It also allows an evaluation of the chances for success and synergistic potential as well as provides adequate operative support.

An in-depth understanding of existing markets and penetrating of new business segments are not incompatible. On the contrary, transferring our existing knowledge to related markets allows us to continue expanding our technology focus.
