There was a lot going on this year, and 2024 probably makes you think of bad news first (wars, traffic lights out, recession). All the better that our last #btt showed: Maybe 2024 wasn’t as bad as its reputation and there’s plenty of reason for optimism that things will pick up again in 2025.
Find out why this is the case below.
We had another eventful year in all our divisions at neosfer: Several startup investments, follow-up funding rounds and one cooperation (invest), the development of various PoCs, prototypes and MVPs (build) and the 4th IMPACT FESTIVAL (connect).
In our industry, however, you can’t look back for long – you always have to look ahead. That’s why it’s all the more exciting to look ahead to 2025 – isn’t it? So let’s raise the curtain on six theses from our Managing Director Matthias Lais on what we at neosfer can expect in the coming year. Including: Experiential AI, a focus on embedded finance, a boost for stablecoins and much more. Do you share his views?

Lately, there has been little news that really whets the appetite for the future. For all those who are tired of the constant negativity, this presentation by Andreas Steinle (Zukunftsinstitut Workshop) is just the thing, a kind of “must see TV”. Andreas discusses innovative trends such as food made from CO2 or AI dating and makes it clear to us that even Donald Trump cannot stop the trend towards more sustainable technologies. If that’s not a good outlook?

The FinTech market and the VC environment have already had better years than 2024, but after the boom during the coronavirus pandemic, this was to be expected as a result of German interest rate hikes and so on. But there is also reason for optimism here: it’s not just that the financing volume in Germany is increasing again. At the same time, there are still many large financing rounds. This is clear and should not be concealed: In 2024, some FinTechs had major problems and there were some insolvencies to regret.
Nevertheless, Christopher Schmitz (EY) is optimistic about the year 2025. One reason for this is Klarna’s upcoming IPO and what it could mean for the scene. Find out more in the video:
