DGAP-News: bmp AG: Start of the König & Cie. II Private Equity Fund of Funds

Abstract:
Draper Fisher Jurvetson IX (DFJ IX) is a classic venture capital fund with headquarters in Silicon Valley. Their investment strategy comprises early phase growth financing in technology companies in the IT, nanotechnology, cleantech, and life science sectors. In addition to the focus in the USA, investments in India and China are also being planned. Since the spectacular sale of the portfolio company Hotmail to Microsoft in 1998, DFJ has established itself in the leading group of venture capital investors worldwide. Their more recent mega successes include Skype (sale to eBay), BAIDU (IPO) and Focus (IPO). Tim Draper, the founder of DFJ, is probably the only third generation venture capital investor in the world.
