APX is closed to new applications. Axel Springer and Porsche founded it in Berlin in 2018, and Jörg Rheinboldt and Henric Hungerhoff ran it. It dropped the 100-day accelerator format in 2021, then stopped making new initial investments in May 2023, after backing around 184 companies. The same team now invests through a successor fund, HEARTFELT_, which writes first cheques of €100K to €400K into idea-stage and pre-seed companies. APX still follows on into its existing portfolio, but founders looking for funding should go to HEARTFELT_.
APX is not accepting new applications.
