Bertelsmann Digital Media Investments

BDMI (Bertelsmann Digital Media Investments)

We partner with early-stage companies to provide capital, along with access to a global network of diverse businesses, both within Bertelsmann and beyond.

Enterprise Network
Drawing upon the global reach of parent company Bertelsmann, BDMI is a financially driven corporate venture investor that brings a wealth of experience and opportunities to emerging companies through a valuable network.

Two Funds
BDMI invests out of a seed fund and a traditional early-stage fund. We prefer to see a product or service that is live in the marketplace with some initial data points that demonstrate early signs of product-market fit.

Flexible Investing
In BDMI’s main fund, we pursue Series A - Series B rounds with an initial investment of $500k to $10m, plus reserves for follow-ons. We are comfortable leading or co-leading an investment, or joining a syndicate.
