10X

We, Andreas Etten, Andrej Henkler, Felix Haas, Jan Becker and Robert Wuttke are a group of serial entrepreneurs that built seven companies and sold three of them until now. Collectively, we make hundreds of investments into startups and VCs. Next to being entrepreneurs we invest our own money in ambitious teams in Europe and Silicon Valley since 2007. We were the first supporters of many European and global success stories. On our website 10x.group you can see a selection of them. Through our extensive network and knowledge in the B2B and B2C world we actively support our founders to develop their companies. Of our 150+ active investments, 50+ are based in the Silicon Valley. Our focus is on businesses with a digital disruptive element. We focus our startup investment activities in three areas: 1) We invest in early-stage startups via 10x Founders, our venture fund and network, to back the best early-stage founders. 2) We invest directly in later-stage venture growth companies. 3) We invest in PE suitable German software companies via FLEX Capital, which we co-founded in 2019. In any case, we help with our network and sharing of knowledge and resources. If you're building something ambitious and want an entreprenerial partner - for any stage of your venture - reach out to anyone of us four.
