About us
Our mission statement
Trust is everything - without trust everything is nothing! This credo is not only our daily guiding principle, but also our claim. In an increasingly digitalized world, people no longer necessarily buy directly from people, but from companies they can trust. For us, trust is the cornerstone of our actions.
For us, investments represent a leap of faith. They represent faith in the future, in the right decisions and in the quality of our performance. Our team is characterized by a strong relationship of trust among each other. This basis of trust enables us to be successful together.
Our customers trust us because we offer them sustainability and ecological solutions. We understand that trust is a commitment that we must fulfill every day. It is our goal to create value through our work and make a positive impact on the environment and society.
We want to earn your trust. We are convinced that we deserve it because we believe in our abilities and in our ideas. Give us your trust, because we have the confidence to meet your expectations and to shape a sustainable future together.
A well-rehearsed, motivated and dedicated team that is committed to the success of our customers. Due to our size, we are flexible and can react quickly to changes. We work hand in hand, communicate openly and transparently with each other and take the time to find optimal solutions together.
Is the search for investment opportunities that can be made meaningful and sustainable. A large part of our team has children and is constantly thinking about their future.
Our children are our motivation. We want to leave them a world in which they can grow up safely and happily.
That is why we are passionate and dedicated to investment opportunities that ensure long-term sustainability and a positive impact on future generations.
Our approach to identifying investment opportunities is characterized by an ongoing commitment to creating financing opportunities that others may miss.
Our founder Jens Schulz thinks around the clock about his work, our team, sustainable investments, our children and thus the future. He recognizes the connections between all these areas and we always strive to make the best of it together with him.
We take an extremely thorough approach to reviewing investment opportunities. We invest a lot of time and resources to evaluate each potential in detail. In doing so, we draw on a large network of partners such as lawyers, tax advisors, banks and technical companies.
Together, we examine feasibility, viability, potential returns, and other important factors.
