Frankfurt am Main, 12 April 2018 – The international law firm BEITEN BURKHARDT has advised the Frankfurt-based Start-up Go Crush GmbH on a seed financing round. The Start-up was able to secure a six-digit investment sum from the Business Angels FrankfurtRheinMain network.

Go Crush, set up in 2017 by founders Lukas Reinhardt, Kai Burghardt and Joao Ferreira, offers an app for group meetings in five German cities. The basic idea of the app is to bring people together as quickly and easily as possible. Over 5,500 users have already registered to meet in virtual regular tables, sorted by topic, thus benefitting from the app's offer to meet new people who share one's interests. After such a group meeting, the participants can stay in touch via a Chat.

The advisory services rendered to Go Crush GmbH by the team of BEITEN BURKHARDT's Frankfurt office which frequently advises participation rounds on both the investor and the start-up side once again shows the growing importance of the venture capital industry in Germany, thus proving the versatile commitment of the law firm's Corporate / M&A practice to the German and international Venture Capital and start-up Scene.

Advisor to Go Crush GmbH:
Dr Gesine von der Groeben (lead partner) and Philipp Sahm (both Corporate / M&A, Frankfurt am Main).
