Munich-based investor Picus Capital is now targeting crypto and Web3 startups more intensively under its new brand Picus.xyz. The new investment division plans to work with founders who want to advance Web3 by abstracting its complexity for consumers and developers.

Picus Capital was founded in 2015 and has made over 140 investments to date. Among them are Munich heavyweights like Personio, Finn, and Avi Medical. The venture capitalist has also already supported crypto startups, such as the staking service Stride, the artificial intelligence infrastructure platform Spice AI, and the crypto asset management service Arch.

Picus.xyz remains true to Picus Capital’s corporate philosophy and invests in the early pre-seed to series A phase, focusing on Web3 infrastructure and consumer products. Investments are made in both equity and tokens. In doing so, the VC brings its expertise in core scaling areas, such as hiring, product design, legal & regulation, community building, sales & marketing, and fundraising.

“Removing barriers for the next generation of Web3 customers and developers”

Robin Godenrath, founding partner and managing director of Picus Capital, comments on the launch:

“We at Picus are increasingly convinced that Web3 will enable the next paradigm shift in the way we live, work, and interact. Picus.xyz represents a pinnacle of this conviction and our desire to collaborate with the category-defining pioneers of the era of the open web. We look forward to supporting the next generation of Web3 founders with all the resources of the Picus franchise.”

Daniel Niklas, investor at Picus.xyz, adds:

“We have reached an exciting and critical point in Web3 where we have all the necessary means to develop meaningful solutions that serve a much broader audience. With Picus.xyz, we look forward to supporting visionary Web3 founders who can imagine entirely new business models and remove barriers for the next generation of Web3 customers and developers.”
