🌍 Powering the energy transition with exnaton ⚡ At Elevator Ventures, we believe that technology and innovation are the driving forces behind a more sustainable and connected future. Europe’s energy landscape is transforming - driven by digital innovation, AI, and the need for smarter, decentralized infrastructure. That’s why we’re excited to back exnaton, a Swiss energy-tech company making it easy for utilities to launch new digital energy services - from peer-to-peer energy sharing to dynamic pricing and smart EV charging. With their software platform, exnaton helps utilities turn complexity into opportunity - accelerating the shift toward a connected energy future. We’re proud to support this mission together with 4impact capital, as well as existing investors True Ventures and Übermorgen Ventures, as exnaton raises Series A to expand across Europe and strengthen its position as a key enabler of the green energy transition. 👏 Congratulations to founders Liliane Ableitner, Arne Meeuw, and Anselma Wörner - and to the entire exnaton team for pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in clean energy innovation. A big thank you also to our colleagues Thomas Muchar, Magdalena Chałas, and Annalisa Mortellaro who worked on closing this deal. #WeElevateYourGrowth #EnergyTech #AI #Sustainability #Cleantech #Utilities #VentureCapital

✨ Elevator Ventures Portfolio & Investor Day 2025 ✨ An inspiring day - full of insights, connections, and conversations that drive innovation forward across our ecosystem. We would like to express a heartfelt thank you to Alexander P. State Secretary in the Federal Chancellery, and Michael Höllerer, CEO of Raiffeisen-Holding Niederösterreich-Wien, for their inspiring remarks, during the evening reception - setting the perfect tone for an event dedicated to innovation, collaboration, and growth. Our morning sessions offered valuable takeaways from Stephanie A. Rieben-de Roquefeuil, Edzard Janssen, Martina Geisler, and Valentin Berger – covering key topics from fundraising and financing to exit readiness and B2B sales for financial institutions. The afternoon concluded with our panel “Elevating Growth: Opportunities and Challenges in FinTech”, moderated by Susanne Chishti, and joined by Stephanie A. Rieben-de Roquefeuil, Curt Chadha, and Christian Wolf – an engaging discussion on innovation, partnerships, and the evolving FinTech landscape. It was a true pleasure to see all our portfolio companies, investors, and partners. Autenti Blockpit AG Bob W.

What I love most about my job is that it’s about people. I work in the middle of innovation, numbers, and technology, but at the end of the day, it all derives from people. This year’s How to Web conference in Bucharest was a great reminder of that. Together with Suleiman A, we met inspiring founders and fellow investors from across the region. I was glad to join as a Mentor and Judge in the Startup Spotlight competition — congratulations to all finalists and to the winner LynxCraft for their impressive work in algorithmic design and construction tech. 👏 Big thanks to the How to Web team for another fantastic edition and to everyone for the great conversations 🤝 Tatjana Zabasu Mikuž, Daniel Hastik, Vedran B., Bruno Lusic, Matej Krcek, Bogdan Iordache, Maciej Kraus, Raya Yunakova, David P., Valentin Filip, Irina Misca.

Raiffeisen Bank International AG has joined an initiative to develop a Euro-denominated #stablecoin - a strong step toward shaping Europe’s digital asset future. Stablecoins are a crucial building block in bridging traditional finance and Web3, bringing trust, compliance, and usability together. For Elevator Ventures, this topic is highly relevant. With our investments in Blockpit AG - a leader in digital asset tax compliance and regulatory reporting - and Tangany - a licensed custodian and infrastructure provider for digital assets - we see how regulated infrastructure and compliance solutions drive innovative solutions across the ecosystem. RBI’s stablecoin initiative underlines the growing importance of such infrastructure in building the rails for Europe’s digital asset economy. 🚀 #DigitalAssets #Fintech #Innovation
📢 We have joined eight other major European banks in a new initiative: the launch of a Euro-denominated #stablecoin. This MiCAR-regulated variant will provide an alternative to the US-dominated stablecoin market and contribute to Europe’s strategic autonomy in #payments. A new entity has been created by this joint venture, which will be responsible for issuing stablecoins starting 2026. 🙌 Read the full story here 👉 https://lnkd.in/e5VrSCPS #MakeItHappen
