”Adina Venture continues what Dr. Holger Seidel started as co-founder of Adina Fund Management.
Adina Venture manages specialized venture capital funds of funds and is dedicated exclusively to this asset class. We strive to deliver superior risk-adjusted returns in the Venture Capital industry.
Our Beliefs
We believe that Venture Capital can not only drive innovation, job creation and positive social change, but should also be part of a well-diversified portfolio.
Exclusive access
We offer access to exclusive and often “closed store” venture capital funds and utilize our more than 30 years of experience in investment and asset management.
Innovation and growth
Venture Capital drives innovation and growth. We research, evaluate and invest in both the best established Tier 1 managers and emerging VC funds, providing our LPs with risk-adjusted access to Venture Capital.
Team
The identification of the most promising VC funds requires a corresponding know-how and “skill set” (expertise, network, “timing”, etc.). The benefit for the Adina investor: reduction of the complexity of the asset class.
Founded in 2024, Adina Venture continues the work of Adina Fund Management. Adina Venture manages venture capital funds of funds as a BaFin-registered investment management company.
Since 2014, Holger Seidel has been providing independent and objective advisory services in the field of alternative assets, in particular for Venture Capital, with Adina Capital GmbH (www.adina-capital.de), which he also founded.
Prior to Adina, Dr. Seidel has held positions as Managing Director at BPE and equitrust/Nordcapital and, as a result, been active in the Venture Capital asset class since 2000.
Due to his many years as managing director of several venture capital funds of funds (www.bpe-fi.de) for institutional investors and "family offices" as well as managing director of private equity "managed account" mandates, he has extensive VC know-how as well as a large network in the European and US VC industry.
Dr. Seidel has built up extensive knowledge in the area of finance during his previous activities at an internationally associated auditing and tax consulting firm in Germany and abroad and as head of the finance department of a real estate company.
With his promotion on the topic of "Innovative Venture Capital Investments via Funds of Funds" at the University of Potsdam as well as his studies in business administration, he also has a sound scientific background on venture capital.
