Maximilian Fleitmann, Managing Director of BaseTemplates and Co-Founder of Wizard Ventures commented: “Earlier this year, when we were crafting the future growth strategy for BaseTemplates we realized there are so many areas in which we can add value to founders but we don’t have the resources to make our ideas a reality. As we were looking for a new partner we came in contact with the team behind Round Ventures and their vision of  building a leading player in the field. And it felt right from the start.”

Round Ventures Co-Founder  added, “BaseTemplates is a well known brand in the startup fundraising ecosystem and has proven over and over again that serving founders is core of their DNA. The team around Maximilian Fleitmann has shown strong execution and made BaseTemplates one of the go-to places for fundraising resources. We are tremendously excited to continue the journey and add our strengths to it.”
‍
BaseTemplates will continue to be a stand-alone brand, that will be expanded through integration of software solutions for founders and fundraising assistance, benefitting from Round Ventures extensive investor networks on the debt and equity side.
