The Investor's Guide to Frankfurt from DB1 Ventures' own Christoph Osburg and Global Corporate Venturing.
We head to Frankfurt this month, where DB1 Ventures' Christoph Osburg fills us in on the tech scene, the social scene, and why a church may be the biggest "must-see".
While Frankfurt may not have the cultural cachet of Berlin, the nightlife of Hamburg or the breweries of Munich, it stands tall as Germany’s financial centre, rivalling London and Paris for Europe’s largest finance hub.
Suitably, the city is a hub of modernity that’s also got one of the continent’s biggest museum clusters. It’s the German city with the most ultra-wealthy citizens in the country while having one of its most ethnically diverse populations. And it's home to several of Germany’s more prominent corporate VCs, especially in fintech, with investors flying in and out through one of the busiest airports in the world.
We asked Christoph Osburg, an investment principal at stock exchange operator Deutsche Börse’s DB1 Ventures, to give us the ins and outs of the city.
