HTGF invests in CarJump

CarJump is a free app, available on both iOS and Android, that collects information on car-sharing providers in Germany, enabling users to find their closest car and to directly book vehicles from various providers.

The funds will be used to develop new products that allow users to jump between different service providers more easily, making the annual driving licence checks and new user registrations an easier process. CarJump aims to establish itself as a hub between mobility providers.

The German urban mobility sector has seen fresh investment recently, with a €10m series-A financing round led by Mangrove for car-sharing business CiteeCar completed last week.

Company
Founded in 2013, CarJump is headquartered in Berlin and employs five people. The app integrates multiple car-sharing providers and is in the process of developing new products. The company is supported by Beuth Gründerwerkstatt, the Berlin Senate Department for Economic Affairs Technology and Research, and the European Social Fund.

People
Oliver Mackprang is CarJump's CEO. Stefan Wendel is an investment manager at HTGF.
