What Digital+ Partners does

Yttrium GmbH (formerly Digital+ Partners) is a privately held growth equity investment firm specializing in growth-stage B2B technology companies. Headquartered in Munich with additional offices in Frankfurt and London, the firm operates across Germany and the United Kingdom. Yttrium partners directly with management teams of B2B technology businesses, providing growth capital, strategic guidance, and operational support intended to enable portfolio companies to scale globally. The firm manages €750M+ in assets under management and holds a portfolio of 20+ B2B technology companies spanning verticals such as indoor mapping and spatial intelligence (NavVis), agile market research automation (quantilope), and cloud pricing software (Pricefx).

The firm operates as a relationship-driven, sales-led investment platform, sourcing deals through direct outreach to management teams, industry networks, and referrals rather than intermediated channels. Its GTM approach is explicitly exclusive to growth-stage B2B technology, supported by 40+ team members and Advisory Partners distributed across its three offices. The firm has refreshed its brand identity with the rebrand from Digital+ Partners to Yttrium and maintains institutional-grade infrastructure including an eFront investor portal and SFDR-compliant ESG disclosures, signaling alignment with European institutional LP requirements.

Yttrium's revenue model is asset management fees on deployed capital under management, a recurring subscription-style revenue stream typical of private equity and growth equity firms. Pricing is not publicly disclosed, and traditional product pricing models do not apply. The firm's competitive positioning rests on sector specialization, capital scale, and a values-driven partnership approach rather than on proprietary technology assets.
