Smart Infrastructure Ventures

Smart Infrastructure Ventures is a Germany-based early-stage venture firm with a thesis centered on infrastructure technology, including industrial software, IoT, smart cities, and adjacent areas. Healthcare is not a core specialty, though the fund can engage with healthcare-adjacent infrastructure plays such as medical device connectivity, hospital operational technology, and digital health infrastructure where the underlying problem looks like industrial software more than clinical workflow. Public detail on stage, check size, and portfolio specificity is limited from the inputs provided, but firms of this type typically deploy seed to early Series A checks ranging from approximately two hundred fifty thousand to two million euros, with follow-on reserves. Healthcare AI founders should set expectations accordingly. This is not a clinical, regulatory, or therapeutic specialist; the fit is narrow and limited to companies whose product is fundamentally infrastructure software with a healthcare end-market. Pure clinical AI, payer software, or therapeutics will not match. Founders building industrial-grade software for hospitals, medical device fleets, life sciences manufacturing, or healthcare logistics could plausibly engage. The best entry path is a warm introduction through the German venture community, a portfolio founder, or an industrial customer relationship. Direct outreach via the website is the realistic alternative for cold contact, and any pitch should lead with the infrastructure framing rather than a clinical narrative. Expect diligence that focuses on technical defensibility, customer pull from industrial buyers, and the team’s ability to sell into long enterprise cycles.
