Mymoria raises 15 million euros

Staying at home and digitally planning the funerals of your loved ones - that's what the start-up Mymoria offers. Entrepreneur David Zimmer also participated in the financing round that has now been completed.

Death can also be digitized, as the funeral start-up Mymoria proves. The Berlin-based company has now raised 15 million euros in a Series C financing round. The family office of founder and entrepreneur David Zimmer, Kalodion, and the investment group Egora Holding are leading the round. Existing investors such as Btov Partners, IBB Ventures and DvH Ventures, which already invested in Mymoria in 2016, are also participating.

The start-up intends to use the money to expand its offering. Mymoria has been offering digital funeral planning since 2016 and has also had boutiques in cities such as Cologne and Munich since 2020, where advice and organization is provided on site. "We want to use the additional capital to realize our vision of providing the same extremely high standard of quality for funerals throughout Germany," says founder Björn Wolff.

The investors are also convinced by Mymoria and the special market in which the start-up operates: "We have been at Mymoria's side since 2018 and are constantly surprised by the intensity, speed and joy with which the Mymoria team manages to provide a traditional market with new impetus and shape it," says Nikolaus Zwick from EGORA Holding.
