If you were born to build, you have found your center of gravity.
About
Every fund claims to add value beyond capital. We actually do — because we've built, failed, rebuilt, and scaled companies ourselves. Fashion e-commerce empires, Med-Tech breakthroughs, 100-school education networks, and frontier blockchain protocols.
Nominated twice as German Entrepreneur of the Year. 150+ employees managed. €50M+ in capital deployed. Multiple exits delivered. This isn't a thesis on paper — it's a track record written in scar tissue and trophies.
When you work with XVentures, you get operators, not observers. We pick up the phone at midnight. We rewrite your pitch at 3am. We introduce you to the people who actually matter.
And we can — because we host them.
Proof of Talk, our flagship summit at the Louvre Palace, gathers 2,500 of the most senior decision-makers in our industry under one roof. 85% C-suite density. 100% sold out, two years running. Most funds chase partners. We invite them into our house.
That changes everything — for us and for every founder in our portfolio.
The Numbers
The Gravity Model
Most funds orbit the market. We are the mass that curves it. A closed-loop fusion of Capital, Influence, and Innovation.
The Davos of Web3. Two days at the Louvre Palace where Web3's trillion-dollar future gets decided. 2,500 decision-makers. 85% C-suite density. 100% sold out. Galaxy Digital called it "The Louis Vuitton of Crypto Events."

Most funds write checks and wait for a return. We don't wait. We create the conditions for domination.
We build the conferences where deals happen. We build schools that raise children ready to lead the AI age. We engineer the tools that reshape education, governance, and capital allocation.
We are founders who fund founders. Operators who understand the 3am panic, the pivot that saves everything, and the moment when you know you've built something that changes the game.
Traditional funds chase deals. We create gravity that pulls deals toward us.
Traditional accelerators hope for applications. We curate from a pool of excellence.
Traditional labs build in isolation. We launch with 2,500 decision-makers in the room.
Life is short. Build something that outlives you.
High Conviction
We don't back startups. We back founders with the fire to reshape entire industries. If that's you — let's talk.
