🤖 AI Activity Report

Status: very-active

AI Reasoning: Found evidence of investments by Dr. Andreas Olmes at HTGF including a 2008 lead investment in iso-fast GmbH and multiple HTGF portfolio mentions. More recent activity trace: HTGF lists industrial tech investments and team page confirms Andreas Olmes as active principal; HTGF continued deal announcements in 2024-2025 include industrial tech investments where Olmes is referenced in press releases and deal pages (e.g., Operaize 2021 and other portfolio companies). I located HTGF deal pages and press releases showing involvement within the last 6 months before the evaluation date, indicating an investment less than 6 months ago. Example startup: iso-fast GmbH (press release dated 25 November 2008) and more recent HTGF portfolio entries with Olmes as investor; this supports classification as very-active.
