We envision a future in which anyone is an investor. Our Brokerage-as-a-Service platform offers Banks, Asset Managers and FinTechs simple digital access to capital markets through a single API. The lemon.markets solution enables efficient securities trading and allows other companies to deliver a best-in-class experience to their customers. We have experienced first hand that brokerage infrastructure is broken. It’s a messy and complex problem that will take time to solve. But that’s exactly what we enjoy. Going to places nobody else dares and shielding our customers from the biggest pain. Our mission is to grow investing opportunities for all European customers and businesses, providing seamless access to capital markets.

Patient. Principled. Founder-centric. Lakestar is the investment firm founded by Dr. Klaus Hommels in 2012. It has over $6 billion in assets under management, on a platform that spans institutional venture capital funds and personal investments across stages and geographies. We partner with category-defining companies such as Airbnb, Fuse, Isar Aerospace, Helsing, Neko, Revolut, and Spotify. We exist because the environment in which technology is built, and decisions are made, has fundamentally changed. We are focused on maximising the potential of our existing portfolio and building targeted investment products that help our companies grow, supporting Europe’s sovereignty and prosperity. Less noise. More commitment. More time where it matters: with founders.
