how we work
we have established naturalX as a strategic investment arm for the Schwabe Group. despite an often strategic nature of investments, our investments come with no strings attached to give entrepreneurs the liberty to always take the best decisions for the venture
we are investing from the balance sheet of the Schwabe Group and have no dedicated fund volume. this also means that we have a lot of flexibility and can invest with a long-term investment horizon, not bound to fund cycles furthermore, we deliberately try to move quickly and have established a lean Investment Committee to drive decisions
