About the Company

Robert Bosch Venture Capital

Venture capital funding deep tech startups

RBVC (Robert Bosch Venture Capital) is a global venture capital firm that backs early-stage deep tech startups in areas like energy efficiency, medical devices, and virtual/augmented reality. It supports companies with funding and access to Bosch’s network and resources to help them scale and bring innovations to market. Unlike traditional VCs, RBVC may purchase solutions for a proof-of-concept while allowing startups to keep their intellectual property, which speeds up development and lowers upfront costs. The firm earns money through equity investments and the eventual success of its portfolio. RBVC’s goal is to accelerate technological advances across multiple industries by connecting startups with Bosch’s ecosystem, customers (from medical centers to data centers), and global reach.
