Frequently asked questions

Schmitz Universe is an entrepreneurial platform that builds, connects and scales companies, brands and digital business models. Instead of starting each venture in isolation, the projects share one common structure: strategy, brand, technology, sales and administration.

Schmitz Universe is currently run as Jonas Schmitz's sole proprietorship. The transfer into a GmbH is planned but has not yet taken place. Full details are in the imprint.

Investors can explore and enquire about individual companies and projects. The entry point is the Investor Relations page with a short introduction, followed by a personal call to align expectations.

Existing companies and brands can bring their reach into the ecosystem – from events and software to digital platforms. The path runs through the “Introduce a company” page; where there is a fit, a partnership or cooperation is formed.

Founders and teams can submit their venture via the pitch page. Where there is a fit, Schmitz Universe contributes more than capital: network, structure, technology, brand and sales – and takes the venture on as part of the ecosystem.

The ecosystem spans nine sectors – among them events & entertainment, software & platforms, real estate, logistics and brands & media. Each company has its own profile; publicly accessible brands are linked directly.

Schmitz Universe is based in Koblenz, Germany. Enquiries are welcome regardless of location; the full address is in the imprint.

The fastest way is the contact form – depending on your topic (investment, partnership, pitch, press) the request is routed to the right place. Alternatively by email to info@schmitzuniverse.com.

A fund mainly provides capital. Schmitz Universe contributes more operationally: structure, technology, brand, sales and access to partners. Stakes arise where this building contribution matters – not as a pure financier. Anyone seeking capital alone is rarely a fit here.

After a short enquiry via the relevant page, a personal conversation follows to align: goals, the right level (a single company, a project or across the ecosystem) and next steps. For investors there is also a data room on request or under confidentiality.

Yes. Besides investors and founders, Schmitz Universe continually looks for technology, sales and service partners that fit individual brands or the shared structure. The entry point is “Introduce a company” or the contact form directly.

Submitted ventures are reviewed; where there is a fit, an initial call, a review and – with mutual interest – a stake and onboarding into the ecosystem follow. Ideas and confidential details are used solely to assess the enquiry.

The principle is verifiability over assertion: publicly accessible brands are linked directly and can be opened for yourself, and no figures, stakes, logos or references are shown that cannot be substantiated. What is not yet public is not presented as finished either.
