Investment

GOLETZ HOFER INTERFACE manages direct investments in small and medium sized companies in startup or special situations. Investments will be done directly by family offices.

We doesn’t make mass investments. We choose only a very few investments per year in industries we know and understand. We believe in highly skilled and visionary entrepreneurs thrilled to break rules. In parallel to an investment we get actively involved into the operational activities of the company in order to support the development – we take care.

We believe in Asia and Europe. The dynamic of billions of people in Asia and the innovation power of Europe are key features of those powerhouses of the world. Therefore we invest in innovation in Europe and in markets in Asia – or vice versa.

Nevertheless it doesn’t matter, if an investment is located in an European country or in China. Very soon the business will become international. As we are.

We are strongly interested in Asian-European projects and business. It doesn’t matter so much for us, if you have international experience – as far as your idea or project have an Asian or European vision. We want your project to be active on a global scale. Because you will find your customers not near your office, but somewhere in Europe and/or Asia. 

Financial resources are important, but we want to add more. We support our companies continuously and help them to survive all the challenges and troubles along their way. Not only based on our own experience as entrepreneurs, but also by all what we have learnt during the last decades – facing minor and major problems in portfolio companies and other projects. We know what it means to be an entrepreneur and how to go the next steps. This can be achieving the next revenue and profits goals, but also an IPO. It depend on you and the markets.

What is our process when you seek for financing?
We want to keep it simple. Send us an e-mail (seek@iface.de) with a short description of why your project should be of interest to us. In the next step we will contact you by e-mail or phone in order to get additional information.

You don’t need a full business plan at the beginning. If we are interested we will work with you through the business and investment case. But we expect that you have a clear vision of the proposed business and how your business works.

If we both get to an investment, we always invest enough that the company can reach break even if everything goes according the plan. The investment will be distributed according to jointly agreed milestones. Typical investments are between 0.5 – 2.0 m Euro.

As mentioned before GOLETZ HOFER INTERFACE invests usually only in industries we know and understand. Therefore our main focus is on:

    • Aviation
    • Education
    • Fashion/Textile
    • Health Care
    • IT
    • Pharma

If you think, that your project or company is related to one of these fields, then you should go ahead.


Our family offices invested during the last years in a couple of projects and developed them specifically. A few examples:
