Two lions - hundreds of startup ideas

After the merger of Social Chain AG and DS Group in 2021, Dr. Georg Kofler, Chairman of the Supervisory Board of Social Chain AG, and Ralf Dümmel, Managing Director, will take turns in the VOX startup show. Both have already been active as investors in the TV show since 2016 and 2017 and have already launched hundreds of great products jointly with the startup founders.

From the innovative sink plug Abfluss-Fee to the sustainable make-up removal pads waschies to the delicious curry sausage in a jar "Iss doch WURSCHT". From the reusable food packaging Vytal to the co-working platform Independesk and the events of ArtNight - we love working with startups and we love good products and ideas that solve problems and make a lot of people happy.

Does the product meet market requirements? Our years of experience enable us to answer this question and provide strategic advice to founders.

From the idea to the shelves – we cover all services along the value chain in-house. That's 550 new employees working for your startup.

No one will be able to do without this novelty: We bring your product to all relevant online marketplaces and local stores – at least all over Europe.

We share the same vision– which is why your brand is in the best hands with us.
