Who we are
FoundersLaneâs journey to becoming the leading Corporate Venture Builder worldwide has started in 2016 by Felix Staeritz, Andreas von Oettingen, and Michael Stephanblome. Joining shortly were other unicorn founders and operators, entrepreneurs with IPOs and exits and serial investors such as Markus Fuhrmann (Delivery Hero), Lionel Paillet (Apple, Nest), Andrej Henkler (Palantir, Evernote) and Jochen Wilms (Dornbracht, Luqom).
Today, FoundersLane is a proven corporate innovation pioneer, trusted by 50+ corporate partners. We create new, fast-growing digital companies by combining the agility and the mindset of technology entrepreneurs with the strength and unfair advantage of large, traditional corporations. Weâve committed ourselves to building ventures that are not just profitable but also drive meaningful innovation. One example is our portfolio venture Solytic. Â The AI-solar analytics platform, which we have built together with Vattenfall, empowers the adoption and maintenance of photo voltaic plants. Four years after founding, it is the fastest-growing solar startup worldwide, present in over 65 countries worldwide..Â
Our corporate partners include SMEs, large corporations, as well as more than 30 Forbes listed companies, such as Allianz, Bosch, Vattenfall, Henkel and Baloise.
We co-create a better future.
