About Dr. Anke Caßing

Dr. Anke Caßing is a trained scientist with a doctorate who moved from years of strategic marketing and business development experience in medical technology, biotechnology, and pharmaceuticals into venture capital at HTGF, bringing a commercially and clinically grounded investment perspective rather than a purely financial one. She serves as HTGF's go-to commentator on the aging economy opportunity in Germany, discussing how technology and startups can address the needs of older adults—an angle that makes her stand out from more generalist health investors.

The fund leverages its industrial corporate limited partners as commercialization partners for portfolio companies and focuses specifically on Industrial Climate & Deep Tech plus Life Sciences & Chemistry, writing small seed tickets to prepare startups for follow-on private VC rounds.
