For digital growth companies
Possehl Digital is a dependable and effective partner for digital growth companies, actively supporting them in their growth and the scaling of their business models. What distinguishes us is:
Possehl Digital, as a holding company, is one of ten independent business divisions of the Possehl Group, which is wholly owned by the charitable Possehl Foundation.
The Group is headed by a lean Group holding company that is managed on a decentralized basis and thus relies heavily on the entrepreneurial skills of its 220 consolidated Group companies and investments - co-owners are more than welcome.
Possehl Digital can act freely and take minority and majority stakes. There is no EXIT pressure and no "revenue hockey stick" expectation due to the existing structure.
Where possible and appropriate, Possehl Digital's investments are intended to support the Group, which is characterized by medium-sized companies, in its digital transformation.
The Possehl Group, which was founded over 175 years ago, consists of a variety of more than 100 business models. It is characterized by its industrial character and medium-sized structure.
The Possehl Digital division focuses on investments in digital companies with capital provided by the Group's liquidity and not from a fund structure.
Possehl Digital supports the growth of its portfolio through credentials, customer access, synergies and shared services.
Thanks to the Group's own 'ecosystem', which supports the digital transformation through diverse technology clusters, potential and requirements are clearly recognizable. The doors to decision-makers are also open.
Our guidelines for investments
We are looking for digital companies that are older than 2-3 years and already generate more than EUR 1 million in revenue.

Capital participation of at least 25%, also possible in stages. No restrictions on the amount of investment.
Already existing prospect (next 3 years) of sustainable positive EBIT in the industrial environment (B2B).
Synergies with companies of the Possehl Group as well as with the industrial SME sector in general.
