About

Headquartered in Berlin, Germany, GFC has expanded its presence with offices in cities such as Munich, Paris, Stockholm, Milan, Madrid, São Paulo, Tel Aviv, Dubai, Singapore, Jakarta, Beijing, San Francisco, New York City, Los Angeles, and London. The firm is known for its stage-agnostic investment approach, supporting companies from pre-seed to IPO across various sectors, including fintech, software, health tech, consumer tech, and marketplaces.
