Germany’s Armira Growth raises €200M for its inaugural fund to bridge growth financing gap in DACH region

Munich-based Armira Growth, a venture capital investing in tech and tech-enabled growth companies, has secured €200M for its inaugural Armira Growth Fund I. 

The funds were contributed by its investors and existing portfolio firms, such as Osapiens, Wemolo, Workwise, and Yoummday.

Scale-up founders considering a partnership with Armira Growth are presented with a range of “compelling reasons”. Firstly, the company’s small, entrepreneurial team enables the execution of agreements and comprehensive support throughout the venture’s lifecycle, from investment to exit. 

Secondly, its selective investment strategy focuses on a limited number of chosen companies, committing funds of €10M to €50M each, fostering a minority partnership approach. 

Third, Armira Growth leverages experience to provide expert guidance across strategic and tactical aspects, drawing from valuable lessons learned. 

Lastly, its investor network, comprising over 100 entrepreneurs and entrepreneurial families, offers unparalleled access to the German Mittelstand, enhancing opportunities for growth and success.

“We cannot wait to support the next generation of (not so) hidden Tech Champions and jointly shape many more entrepreneurial success stories!” says Armira Growth.

Investing in tech and tech-enabled growth companies

Armira Growth is an investment holding committed to providing entrepreneurial capital for partnerships with a long-term perspective. 

Catering to family investors and entrepreneurs looking to invest in both Mittelstand and growth companies, it aims to become the preferred investment partner.

With over €3B equity invested in family businesses and growth companies across the DACH region and beyond, the firm is supported by an “exclusive investor base” comprising families, entrepreneurs, and entrepreneurial capital.

The firm says, “We invest €20M – €200M in majority stakes of growing medium-sized Mittelstand hidden champions. Our focus is on established, profitable companies with sustainable business models in DACH, Northern Italy and beyond.”
