Konvi, a Berlin, Germany-based pan-European crowd-investment platform for alternative asset classes, raised $900K in Pre-Seed funding.

The round was led by APX, and angel investors such as Claire Valoti (Director EMEA, Snap Inc), Christoph Roettele (former CEO, Check24), former executives from Shopify as well as the early-stage VC APX (Axel Springer Porsche).

The company intends to use the funds to invest into additional alternative assets that have a low correlation to mainstream assets.

Founded in 2020 by Ioana Surdu-Bob, Lena Sonnen and Eran Peer, Konvi is a pan-European crowd-investment platform for alternative asset classes. The main focus is on acquiring and selling assets at the best prices through partners to allow users to benefit from potential value appreciation. Konvi’s business model allows every small investor to diversify their financial portfolio with alternative assets such as rare watches, fine wines, or whiskey and, thus, to protect themselves from market volatility. Besides these, the team is planning to expand investment opportunities in other asset classes such as arts, collectible cars, handbags and NFTs.

One of the latest assets funded through Konvi is the super rare Cartier XL Tortue High Complication Platinum watch, of which only 15 pieces have been produced around the world, boasting a retail price of $500K.
