Notch receives helpful support from Hamburg

Notch was founded in 2021 by Viktor Kessler, Tim Dethlefsen, Devin Lemcke and Alex Sandau. The startup provides a modular buyer-seller collaboration tool to simplify the entire process from initial demo to successful closing by bringing all elements of the sales process into a single, buyer-centric workspace. In building the company, the team is supported by Hamburg-based startup consultancy beyourpilot (soon to be Startup Port), which among other things helped the company successfully apply for the EXIST startup grant.

Participating in the current financing round are High-Tech Gründerfonds (HTGF), WestTech Ventures, APX and several prominent business angels such as Oliver Manojlovic (VP Sales at Personio), Sebastian Johnston (Founding Partner La Famiglia), Sebastian Haas (Co-Founder of Talent. One), Christoph Zöller (Co-Founder of Instaffo), Zou Yang (Co-Founder of GoTiger), Elias Russezki (Co-Founder of deltamethod) and Alexander Eitner (Co-Founder of MILES).

"Ultimately, our goal is simple: Notch wants to make B2B purchasing and onboarding as easy and friendly as it is known today only in the consumer space, where customer experience has arrived. Instead of juggling emails and endless tools, we believe there needs to be a place where buyers and sellers can align on goals and coordinate next steps."
Viktor Kessler, Co-Founder of Notch
