NAO secures 1.6 million euros pre-seed

Berlin-based FinTech NAO secures €1.6 million in pre-seed funding, led by Zeitgeist X Ventures. NAO enables private investors to access professional investment opportunities through collaborations with financial institutions such as UniCredit.

WealthTech company NAO offers a multi-asset investment platform for digital natives to provide them with professional access to asset classes. Aiming to close the existing wealth building gap, NAO enables consumers as small as €1,000 to invest in curated investment opportunities for long-term wealth accumulation. CEO and co-founder Robin Binder emphasizes the need to create easier participation in finance.

We invest in business models of the future. My experience is that access to individual financial products is complicated and elitist.

For the upcoming launch, the company has successfully secured pre-seed funding of 1.6 million euros. Well-known business angels such as Steffen Hetzel, Jan Karnath, Jakob Schreyer and Artur Hasselbach as well as institutional investors such as Kotti Capital and Zeitgeist X Ventures participated in the financing round. The funding underlines the confidence of renowned investors in the company.

While many FinTechs today facilitate access to financial investments, consumers have not yet benefited from the strategic investment approaches of institutional investors.

Robin Binder, CEO & Founder NAO

NAO is a co-investment platform that acts as a "family office for your pocket". The Berlin-based WealthTech company, founded in 2022 by Robin Binder, Philipp Nowakowski and Amel Hasanovic, is on a mission to liberalize investing and support long-term wealth creation. Through the NAO app, investors can discover exclusive and carefully selected investment opportunities that were previously only available to a small group of financial elites. In doing so, NAO works with Baader Bank as a custodian bank and cooperation partners such as UniCredit.
