PT Capital is a German-U.S. Venture Capital firm based in Munich, Germany and Silicon Valley, California. PT Capital focuses on equity investments in predominantly German high growth companies which have a proven and globally scalable business model with a clear path to exit. PT Capital invests in companies that have already achieved initial market traction and have the potential for fast growth through U.S./global expansion.

PT Capital looks for special situations where significant value can be created in an average holding period of three years. Such situations are not dependent on the specific company stage: however, always include a clear path to exit, existing competent teams, and a business model that is globally scalable.

Team

Our team combines investment experience with top-level international operational, marketing, and business development expertise. We have a track record of successfully operating across European, U.S., and Asian business environments. With our collaborative and cross-disciplinary team approach, we have the capability, know-how, and networks to successfully develop globally leading companies.

For Entrepreneurs

PT Capital supports entrepreneurs and teams to scale their companies rapidly to a profitable exit predominantly to U.S. buyers. We provide our Portfolio Companies with access to U.S. markets, talent and key decision makers, in particular Silicon Valley.

We require the full commitment of the pre-determined execution and market penetration pan. This will lead to a highly successful exit targeted within 36 months. The commitment includes the establishment of a U.S. presence and the staffing with top U.S. sales and marketing talent.

We want the company to focus on their business expansion and not on fundraising. Therefore, we provide sufficient capital to finance the company until exit. When business opportunities and rapid growth require additional resources, we can provide further capital and networks through our relationships with U.S. VC firms.
