About INVENTIO

From machinery to business angel & impact investor

INVENTIO is rooted in engineering: founded in 1998 as INDAT and built over two decades into Austria’s leading company for prototyping and special-purpose machinery. Since the successful exit in 2019, we have been working as a business angel and impact investor.

We currently hold stakes in several companies across Austria, Germany and the UK. Our focus: businesses with strong growth potential that also make a lasting, positive contribution to our environment.

We are not passive investors. We help shape our companies – technically, strategically, and with a network that has grown over 30 years.

Behind INVENTIO stands a team of entrepreneurs, engineers and investors. That network is our real capital.

Track record

Exits are no accident – they are the result of years of consistent company building.

“Coming together was a beginning, working together was the success – what remains are friendships for life. Thank you for the years we shared: plenty of hard work, and even more joy.”

What we bring to the table

Capital is one thing. What makes the difference is technical depth, funding expertise and a network grown over 30 years.

Technical depth

Manufacturing methods, technical model making, mould making, milling, 3D printing – practice over theory. We understand what we finance.

Funding expertise

Years of experience with FFG, AWS, EU programmes and the State of Lower Austria – from application to compliant final report.

Network & capital

Personal contacts to funding bodies, investor groups and makers across Austria – and the willingness to roll up our sleeves.

What a pitch needs to bring

  • Technology with substance – a real product or process, not just a business-model construct
  • Positive impact – measurable benefit for the environment or society
  • Scaling potential – from prototype to market, not a workshop forever
  • Founders with character – honesty about challenges beats glossy slides
  • Region – focus on Austria, Germany and the UK; proximity is optional, chemistry is not
