Munich — The soft­ware inves­tor DRS Invest­ment GmbH expands its team with the M&A expert Matthias Schneck, photo. After 13 years, Schneck joins DRS Invest­ment from the AURELIUS Group, where he was most recently Mana­ging Part­ner of AURELIUS Growth Capital.

With this step, DRS Invest­ment comple­tes its own circle of part­ners, which, in addi­tion to foun­der and Mana­ging Part­ner Dr. Andreas Spie­gel, consists of venture capi­tal expert Harald Ebrecht and soft­ware entre­pre­neur Dr. Sven Abels. They are supported by other private equity specia­lists on the Advi­sory Board.

Having worked in the invest­ment banking depart­ment of a major bank, in the finance depart­ment of a listed medium-sized company and in the M&A team at the AURELIUS Group, for which he execu­ted more than a dozen tran­sac­tions, Schneck is one of the most expe­ri­en­ced experts in the German small-cap segment. His respon­si­bi­li­ties at DRS Invest­ment include deal origi­na­tion and execu­tion as well as buil­ding a high performing invest­ment team.
