The INSPiRE Group's mission is to be a reliable guide for global entrepreneurs through accompaniment. Supporting them financially and inspirationally can steadily grow young businesses into successful enterprises, eventually creating a mutualistic society where everyone can benefit through mutual efforts.
To accomplish that mission, developing businesses that help build a better future is crucial. That is why INSPiRE is committed to offering a complete accompaniment to entrepreneurs and leading mid-sized companies, while proactively addressing social issues from various perspectives, which often can involve extremely laborious processes.
INSPiRE is also unique in how it balances human and financial resources. Human resources can provide essential business ideas and visions, which will, however, remain dreams without financial capital support.
Particularly for new ventures, success is not always guaranteed, and that is where so-called "risk money" is needed to cushion the impact of failure. Risk and opportunity are two sides of the same coin. By efficiently exploiting risk money, we constantly strive to flip the coin from the risky side to success.
INSPiRE's role has been unique since its founding in 2000. Its focus has been business creation and implementation. It is dedicated to assisting both start-ups and established companies by concurrently providing financial and growth supports for the first and new business development initiatives for the latter. Its methodology has a proven record of success in crafting growth scenarios and facilitating partnerships between venture and established businesses, thus turning innovations into tangible business assets.
