The financing round was led by "NeueCapital Partners" fund from Silicon Valley and Porsche Ventures, the venture capital unit of the Stuttgart-based sports car manufacturer. LUTZ | ABEL advised on the transaction.

The German software start-up Nitrobox GmbH closed a financing round in the single-digit million euro range. "NeueCapital Partners" fund from Silicon Valley and Porsche Ventures, the venture capital unit of the Stuttgart-based sports car manufacturer, took a stake in the company.

Nitrobox has developed a cloud platform which can be used in several sectors for automatic monetization and billing of digital business models. In the field of mobility, Nitrobox is already working with several car manufacturers, including Porsche. The start-up supports the order-to-cash process of new business models: services such as car sharing, functions-on-demand, digital parking tickets or charging services can be fully automated via the Nitrobox platform. The company intends to use the funds from the financing round primarily to further expand its market position in Germany and to prepare for its entry to the US market.

As in previous rounds, LUTZ | ABEL provided legal advice to Nitrobox. The team included the following attorneys: Dr. Lorenz Jellinghaus (Partner, Hamburg) Dr. Sebastian Sumalvico (VC, Munich) and Nina Sophie Osten (VC, Hamburg).
