PopUp Berlin raises over €1 Million in seed financing

PopUp Berlin, Germany’s leading marketplace for renting temporary and flexible space for Pop-Up ideas, raises a seven-digit figure in seed financing round. An international consortium of investors from Germany, Austria and USA and the Dutch retail design and strategy company JosDevries The Retail Company composed the group of early-stage financiers.
Christiaan Rikkers, CEO of JosDeVries, comments on the investment: “We do not just invest in a fascinating subject, but also in a team that understands the future of retailing in all its diversity.”

Pop-Up is not a niche trend

This makes PopUp Berlin the first expanding company in this line of business across Europe. PopUp Berlin was founded by Sven Straubinger, Dennis Boehres and Patrick Burkert in 2014. “Pop-Ups are mostly still considered as a niche trend — but behind the term we see a sustainable concept that’s about to change the European market by reframing the economic models of retail and use of commercial space“, Burkert comments.
The investment capital will be used towards scaling and expanding the marketplace and developing a broadened suite of services. Additional funds will focus on the brand development and international expansion.
