Invest

We boost the ideas of ambitious founders with our insights, capital, an extensive network, and strategic advice.

From the financial metropolis of Frankfurt, we look for start-ups in Europe that have the power to redefine financial services with their vision. Our investment focus here is on early-stage start-ups whose solutions create real added value, digitally and sustainably, for Commerzbank Group and its customers.

Build

We build solutions that shape the future of financial services and their clients

In the heart of Frankfurt, we construct digital and sustainable ideas, and create prototypes and build our own ventures from them. We then turn these into disruptive reality for financial services clients.

Connect

We connect. To accelerate the sustainable and digital transformation

We are an important hub in connecting start-ups, investors and innovators. To accelerate the digital and sustainable transformation, we foster the exchange of knowledge among all parties through our community formats. Because one thing is clear: only through collaboration, partnerships and the expansion of our ecosystem will we be able to shape a more digital and greener future.
