Our latest investment: Complori

CK Workspace founders Conny Hörl & Katja Rhunke in front of a concrete wall

As you know, our founders Conny and Katja are not 'only' passionate entrepreneurs, but also invest in the ideas and companies of others by acting as angel investors as CK Venture Capital GmbH.

Now we are proud to announce that they have invested again! And anyone who has been following Conny and Katja's work as business angels for a while will know their motto: Invest to make the world a better place. And that is exactly what they have done again this time by deciding to support Complori.

Complori

Complori has set itself the goal of introducing children and young people to programming in a fun and age-appropriate way. This idea is simply brilliant. We have known for a long time that children and young people have a real fascination for screens and everything to do with them, often to the chagrin of their parents. Some like to be entertained or inform themselves through the Internet, while others are interactive and explore the world of online gaming. The young generation's enthusiasm for screens is unmistakable. So why not make productive use of this fascination and at the same time make an important contribution to equal opportunities in Europe? That's exactly what the founders of Complori thought.

The idea

The three founders came up with the idea for Complori during the first coronavirus lockdown. Instead of being overwhelmed by boredom and fear of the future at home, they focused on a particularly relevant topic during the lockdown: the excessive demands placed on schools by the sudden digitalization of teaching. In addition, co-founder and CEO Amanda was one of the few women in business informatics, which raised the issue of equal opportunities. With this food for thought and other considerations, the development and launch of Complori began. Now we too can be part of this journey!

The goal

The aim of Complori is to make computer science accessible to children regardless of their background, social status or gender and to use digital enthusiasm to impart useful knowledge and further their education. Sounds fantastic, doesn't it? The Süddeutsche Zeitung thought so too and published an article about our innovative start-up. Click here for the article.
