E FOR ENTREPRENEURS

We are entrepreneurs who have founded a start-up and built it into a thriving and established company in just a few short years. We are e&Co.

We are the bridge between knowing how to do things and getting things done. Our experience comes from being in the machine room of the economy – and from taking risks. Yes, risks. Because in our view, not taking risks is the fastest way to fall victim to them. Since setting up, we have helped around 100 companies to grow, taking equity stakes in some and providing knowledge transfer to others; some were helped by gaining access to our network, others have simply hired us in a business advisory role. Our aim in all of this is to make Europe’s future digital. And to keep having fun!

We take stakes in teams already in place and work with their ideas; for B2B start-ups and ventures in the fast-scaling phase, we provide valuable access to our network. We also operate our own mobility growth funds motec ventures, which allows partners and industry experts to invest in our ideas: we call it ‘network as a service’. If you’re looking for e&Co., you’ll be sure to find us in Automotive, Mobility, and Deep Tech. We are entrepreneurs and consultants, people who take ideas and make them happen. Ying and yang: e&Co.

Established automotive & mobility players

For several years now, we have plotted a successful course over the roiling oceans of the global automotive industry and mobility sector. As intrepid entrepreneurs and bold consultants, as a mobile expeditionary force, and occasionally as buccaneers flying the business equivalent of the Jolly Roger, we like nothing more than feeling the wind fill our sails as we set off for horizons new and shores afar. Again and again, our wanderlust takes us into unchartered waters – and into contact with exciting new people. When we find new start-ups and young ventures in the mobility ecosystem, we support them, bringing them together with our partners in the automotive industry. That is where our knowledge of both worlds comes into play – and our dual role as both entrepreneurs and consultants.
