MCM is a self-described 'institutional business angel' investing across industries with a particular focus on technology companies. The firm's investment philosophy consists in being fast, intuitive and opportunistic in their investment decisions, and in following a hands-on investment approach. They emphasize the importance of strong portfolio diversification and invest across sectors, regions, development phases and business sizes. They apply a bargain hunter's strategy and invest in companies which they perceive as undervalued, both listed and unlisted. MCM aims to balance their investments between seed financing, pre-IPO companies and special situations such as spin-offs, carve outs and distressed companies. Their deal flow comes through the parent group's extensive network. The firm invests primarily in German-speaking countries. They prefer first-round investing and generally co-invest with business angels. MCM invests between EUR 200 thousand and 2 million per deal, down to EUR 50 thousand for seed financing. They are exit-oriented investors and their exit strategies include IPOs and trade sales.
