from Startup Insider · host Jan Thomas, Susie Meier (DTCP), Zoe Angelis, Lucas Lehmann

Agentic AI greift nicht das Software-Budget an, sondern den Service-Spend. Wie groß wird das? Susie Meier ist Managing Director Growth Equity bei DTCP und verantwortet von München aus die europäischen Investmentaktivitäten. Bei Investments & Exits mit Jan Thomas ordnet sie den Happy-Robot-Case ein: Deep-Stack-Defensibility, AI-Native Services in der Logistik und das Käufer-Universum für Exits. Über den Gast Susie Meier ist Managing Director im Growth-Equity-Team von DTCP und steuert von München aus die europäischen Investmentaktivitäten. Zuvor war sie vier Jahre bei HV Capital, zuletzt als Principal mit Schwerpunkt FinTech und Enterprise SaaS. Sie studierte Financial Management in Regensburg und absolvierte einen MSc in Finance and Private Equity an der London School of Economics. Als Kauffman Fellow (Class 28) ist sie Teil des renommiertesten US-amerikanischen VC-Programms. Bei DTCP fokussiert sie sich auf missionskritische Software ab der Series B mit Tickets ab 20 Millionen US-Dollar, bevorzugt tief im Stack, hoch defensibel und auch in regulierten Industrien.
