Interface

A new kind of venture firm by @christianreber and @jansenniklas.

[RobCo @Robco_Robotics]

AI isn't digital. It's physical.

Today RobCo crossed a $1B valuation. We're a unicorn.

The best part: through an employee secondary sale, the people who helped build RobCo share in the value they created.

The next chapter of AI happens on the factory floor.

@ncsh @tbpn Nice one!

[Christian Reber 🇪🇺 @christianreber]

Europe needs insanely ambitious builders and investors. Right now we have neither at the scale this moment demands.

It's incredibly easy to blame politicians for everything. But Europe has another huge issue: we lack agency. We need a far higher density of ambitious builders — people who start the hard companies instead of waiting for permission.

Every industry that compounds — AI, cloud, chips, robots, space — is being built by the US and China.

AI. No European lab competes with OpenAI, Anthropic or Google. Mistral is the only contender, and an order of magnitude too small. This is the platform layer everything else will run on, and we're not in the room.

Cloud. AWS, Azure, Google — almost 0% European. Our entire digital economy runs on rented American servers. That's not a market we lost. It's leverage we handed away.

Chips. We don't design them (Nvidia, Apple), we don't manufacture them (TSMC). We own exactly one company — ASML — that builds the one machine the whole world needs. It could be Europe's first trillion-dollar company. Miss the rest of the chain and we lose that too.

Batteries & rare earths. Up to 98% come from China. A dirty, low-margin business — but lose the supply chain and the economy stops overnight. Northvolt was our shot. It collapsed into the largest bankruptcy in Swedish history, yet we should try again and again and again.

Autonomy. Waymo and Tesla in the US. Baidu, WeRide, Pony in China. Robotaxis hit European streets in 2026 — running on foreign tech.

Robots. China ships 87% of the world's humanoids. The bright spot: Germany's Neura just raised $1.4B from Nvidia and Amazon. One real bet. We need fifty.

Space. SpaceX launches 80+ times a year; we're rebuilding from behind. No reusable rockets, no Starlink alternative, no answer yet as compute moves to orbit.

All of this is fixable. Not by subsidizing the past or regulating the future — by funding people audacious enough to BUILD.

Europe doesn't have a talent problem. It has a courage-and-capital problem.

Build. Build. Build.

We are teaming up with Atlantic and @Interface for an evening of cold drinks, good food and bold debate: Moonshots vs. Marathons. Berlin, May 20th, 6pm, following Deep Tech Momentum.

Builders & backers are coming together to discuss one core question: when building transformative technology, do we sprint for breakthroughs or grind toward them step by step? Is that a false choice?

Expect lively discussions and a curated book selection to fuel your thinking long after the night. Apply here to join https://t.co/9E0x3FLGU7

Some people still won't put AI UGC behind paid spend.

Drifting faces. Glitching hands. Stitched-in audio that missed the mouth by half a second.

Seedance 2.0 fixes all three.

It's live in Superscale today. The skeptics can test now.

At @Interface we believe in a new 🇪🇺European vision:

A future where robots & intelligent software provide for most human needs.

A world beyond capital & scarcity, where survival is no longer the goal.

A world designed for humans to learn, create, explore and heal.

We invest in founders building towards that future. For Europe & for humanity.

If you are building a company towards that goal, DM me or @jansenniklas and we'll invest up to €1.5M per company.

EUROPE IS COMING BACK 🇪🇺

This September, Europe’s finest and most ambitious builders unite at a historic location in Berlin. Join us for a fresh dawn of European tech. All-in on Europe. https://t.co/1LSsoDZsiI

[Christian Reber 🇪🇺 @christianreber]

We backed new 🇪🇺 European Builders with @Interface: Pandektes is building the future of legal research—a comprehensive platform covering both EU and national jurisdictions. We were super impressed with the Pandektes team, their product quality, intuitive UI, and the enthusiasm of their growing user base.

We're thrilled to join them on this journey, supporting the founders' ambition to dismantle jurisdictional barriers in Europe and build a trustworthy, AI-native legal database featuring millions of legal sources, advanced legal reasoning, and analysis.

“Gentlemen, we will chase perfection, and we will chase it relentlessly, knowing all the while we can never attain it. But along the way, we shall catch excellence.”

― Vince Lombardi

Happy holidays to all the builders and innovators out there! Always keep shipping.

[Christian Reber 🇪🇺 @christianreber]

Congratulations to @helenehuby for raising $160m – Europe's most significant Series B in the space industry. When we chatted back in 2022, I was honestly nervous to invest in a space company, but you were a one-of-a-kind founder. You deserve every bit of success. Go team! 🇪🇺🇩🇪 https://t.co/BfGPRuvSJU

[Josef Chen @josefchen]

Late shoutout to @david_hoehl from @interface who flew in from Berlin to help us hand out flyers! That’s the type of investor you need on your captable.

[Niklas Jansen @jansenniklas]

We're so back!

Happy to support Alexandria House with @interface
