Sascha Günther becomes a partner at Vorwerk Ventures
The founder of travel start-up Yilu is taking on a management role at the VC. Former partner Holger Witte also gets a new position.
Venture capitalist Vorwerk Ventures is expanding its management team. As the VC announced, Sascha Günther has been appointed Managing Partner. The 34-year-old has been with Vorwerk Ventures since 2020 and as Principal was responsible for investments in Avi Medical, Nilo Health and Alpakas, among others. Günther previously founded the travel start-up Yilu.
In addition to Sascha Günther, former Partner Holger Witte has also been promoted. Witte is also Managing Partner with immediate effect and will thus form a quartet at the top of the company together with Günther, Dirk Meurer and Norbert Muschong.
The personnel news comes shortly after the launch of a new fund. The investor, which emerged from the Vorwerk family business in 2019, announced this at the beginning of the month, raising 150 million euros.
