Hi Berliners 🍾

Another long weekend done 😎 Before all eyes turn to SuperReturn & SuperVenture Week in two weeks, we’re heading to Munich for two events: tonight, an Off the Record Late Stage Founder Dinner with Re, tomorrow a padel tournament at Padel City Englischer Garten.

And yes — we did it again. Our annual SuperReturn & SuperVenture side-event cheatlist is officially live, featuring 50+ handpicked events across Berlin. Think: a Prince Charles takeover, a 150+ person Super Aperitivo in a gallery, BAD1 Conference, 5+ LP dinners, and a lot more.

Wed. Jun. 10: Super Aperitivo II 🍸 | 4:00 PM – 7:00 PM: SuperReturn week is a marathon. And this is the exhale. We are partnering for our second Super Aperitivo with PT1, Carbon Equity, HELIAD, Norrsken, and are inviting Top-tier GPs & LPs, in a gallery setting, drinks, beautiful bites, and live performance. No stage. No pitches. No badges. Just a Super Aperitivo.
Tue. Jun. 16: FOMO x RSM Ebner Stolx: The Fundraising Salon 💸 | 6:30 PM – 9:30 PM: 30+ founders, no stage, no pitching. Term sheets, dilution, investor rights, negotiation mistakes — decoded over dinner. Curated, Appy. Berlin
