Rheingau Founders

We are a young incubator with a focus on „internet" and „mobile". Based on our various successful start-up experiences we are able to actively support the founder teams in the very early stages of their founding plans. We understand our role as temporary co-founders, who tackle things together with the founders and thus act as accelerators for the young company. We made the experience that our support can have a real impact in the first year of the venture. Our support is versatile:


• Completion of the founder team

• Creation of a clean contractual basis

• Mediation between cooperation partners

• Strategy and optimization of marketing measures
  (SEO, SEM, TV, Print, etc.)

• Creation of sales structures and recruiting processes

• Last but not least the search of and negotiations
  with external Venture Capitalists


The physical proximity to our start-ups is very important to us – especially in the first 12 months of the venture. Therefore, we provide an open and collaborative working space to the founding teams in our Berlin office – this is the only way to ensure that all questions can be raised, all challenges can be solved and to share the joys and sorrows of the everyday life in a start-up.

We are no gurus who can foresee what will dominate the market in 3 years' time. We rather look at current market behavior and try to replicate it online and make the business model scalable. However, as it is often the case it totally depends on the implementation.
