Founded in 2005, Stars Innovation serves as a bridge between investors looking to put their money to work and entrepreneurs seeking funding to build new ventures. The firm typically invests in startups that are 6-10 years old and focuses on rounds with a single participant. While the fund has a preference for investing in Germany, it has also financed startups in other fields such as biotechnology and healthcare. The fund typically engages in deals ranging from $1-5 million and has been active in less than 2 investment rounds per year.
