Wessel Management GmbH: A venture capital firm investing in high-potential entrepreneurs, fostering societal wellbeing and prosperity.

Founded

Wessel Management GmbH is the vehicle for venture capital and other investments made by the family of Rolf Christof Dienst. For 40 years, they have been investing directly (and through Rolf, founding partner of Wellington Partners, also indirectly) with entrepreneurs, who show the greatest potential to achieve success for interesting ideas and/or technologies. They particularly like to engage with companies, which contribute to the wellbeing and prosperity of society in general.
We mostly invest in conjunction with a small group of co-investors – all experienced entrepreneurs themselves with specific industry knowledge and wide-ranging personal networks. Together with these partners, they support our portfolio companies actively. They often engage at an early stage and their own investments typically range from 1% to 25% of a portfolio company’s share capital. While they love accompanying entrepreneurs on their journey to commercial success, human interactions and ethical aspects equally define their partnerships.
