Marc Schröder

Marc is originally from the Netherlands, grew up in Cape Town, South Africa, and graduated with a law degree from Bertolt-Brecht University. He constantly travels between MGV office locations in San Francisco and Munich, Germany. In his free time he enjoys running, rugby, skiing, lifting weights, reading, traveling, and especially spending time with his family.

Marc is the Co-Founder and Managing Partner at Maschmeyer Group Ventures (MGV) where he focuses on working with world- class entrepreneurs in technology. Maschmeyer Group Ventures is an early stage venture capital firm that invests in emerging technology companies. Their founders choose them for their sales expertise, global network, and access to long-term capital. Marc's main focus is the founding team, and as a result, does not have strict requirements for traction, revenue, or industry. MGV invests up to $500k in a select few promising early stage startups alongside a lead investor. MGV's role is to support highly-skilled teams as they navigate the road ahead. Earlier in his career, Marc founded a successful HR and staffing company that operated throughout Germany. He then became the Head of Global Sales at the Maschmeyer Group, and most recently was Partner at seed + speed Ventures.

Marc is a member of Class 24, Co-Chair of the Bay Area Chapter, serving his fellowship at MGV.
