PT1

PT1 (PropTech1 Ventures) is a fully independent early-stage venture capital platform founded in 2018 and headquartered in Berlin, with a team operating across London and other European cities. The firm focuses exclusively on pre-seed and seed investments in transformative technologies for real assets — the convergence of real estate, infrastructure and energy that underpins the built environment.

PT1 invests in what it calls '#Futurebuilders': founders building scalable solutions to the megatrends reshaping the physical world, including the scarcity of natural resources, carbon budget constraints, the affordable housing crisis and the global shortage of skilled labour. The firm's portfolio spans a wide range of technologies at the intersection of these asset classes, from net-zero retrofit platforms and climate-risk insurance tools to carbon capture and next-generation infrastructure monitoring. PT1 brings deep sector expertise through a team of industry veterans, a proprietary deal-flow database, and institutional investors including Commerz Real, Baloise, Liechtenstein Group, JLL Spark and PwC.

PT1 has backed over 45 companies across Europe and is widely regarded as the leading pre-seed and seed investor in real asset technologies on the continent. Its portfolio includes companies such as Building Radar, FloodFlash and Arctis AI, and its co-managers include ERIC Fund Management. The firm is committed to generating double returns — both financial and societal — as the built world adapts to the challenges of climate change and resource scarcity.
