Investment fund

Breaking new ground means not shying away from risk. With Invest-Impuls, we make this bold step easier.

We get on board with the founders and young companies and also assume a share of the risks and opportunities through our investment. In addition to access to the capital market, we also offer excellent support through external and professional fund management.

Business Angel Network


Business angels are private investors who invest their own capital in start-ups to support them in their early development phases. In most cases, business angels are successful entrepreneurs themselves and already have an instructive path behind them.
They now want to use their knowledge, experience and capital to support other aspiring founders and achieve success together.
By investing in young companies, business angels have the opportunity to support innovative ideas and start-ups, which in turn have the potential to change the world. Their investment enables these young companies to turn their visions into reality. For the business angels themselves, it is an opportunity to pass on their knowledge, to gain early access to innovative ideas and technologies, and to be directly involved in successes.
Our network brings together experienced business angels and experts. This results in greater visibility in the startup and founding scene. Synergy effects are created by pooling resources, sharing contacts and expertise, leading to a stronger position in the market and a stronger basis for investment decisions.

Events for the Business Angel Network in Hanover


Among other things, we organize matching evenings at different locations. At such an event, several start-ups are given the opportunity to present their business models to potential investors in a 7-minute pitch. After the pitches, there is time to ask questions and exchange ideas in a relaxed atmosphere.
After the matching evenings, our club evenings take place exclusively for business angels. Here, only business angels come together to discuss the respective start-ups and potential investments.
Invest-Impuls cooperates with Banson e.V. in the development of the business angel network and benefits from their many years of experience in network development.
In addition to our events, we also offer other interesting opportunities for exchange.
