About us
To reinvent private markets by providing simple, digital, and transparent access to alternative investment assets for professional and institutional clients.
Cometum is a specialized asset manager focused on private markets, offering professional and institutional clients access to exclusive investment opportunities in direct equity (SpaceX, Stripe, Klarna) and private credit. Founded in 2020 and based in Grünwald, Germany, the company structures and distributes alternative investments through special purpose vehicles (SPVs), making assets traditionally reserved for major institutions available to a broader base of professional clients. With a minimum investment threshold of €500,000, Cometum serves Family Offices, UHNWIs, and institutional investors, emphasizing transparent cost disclosure and institutional pricing. The team operates with 2-10 employees, focusing on portfolio diversification beyond public markets.
Products
The core offering centers on structured access to private market assets through SPVs, including pre-IPO opportunities in companies like SpaceX and Klarna, private equity, private debt, and real estate debt. Cometum also lists niche investment categories such as art, classic cars, vintage car portfolios, and diamonds on its platform. Fine wine and additional art portfolios are marked as coming soon. All products target professional investors exclusively, with transparent cost structures and institutional pricing passed through to clients.
Funding
Cometum has raised approximately €450,000 across two pre-seed rounds since its 2020 founding. The company closed roughly €200,000 in May 2022, followed by approximately €250,000 in August 2022. BLOCKROCKET has been identified as an institutional investor. Beyond these early rounds, the company has not disclosed additional funding details publicly.
Recent news
In the last 12 months, Cometum has actively expanded its portfolio of "Private Blue-Chip" investment opportunities, specifically promoting exclusive SPV-structured access to equity in high-profile pre-IPO companies such as Klarna, SpaceX, and the cryptocurrency exchange Kraken to its professional investor base.
Technology
Cometum's platform leverages blockchain technology as a core differentiator, enabling tokenization and fractionalized access to exclusive assets. The infrastructure runs on AWS with Amazon CloudFront and Cloudflare for secure content delivery. Frontend development uses JavaScript and React, while the backend operates on Node.js with MongoDB as the primary database. Containerization through Docker and Kubernetes orchestration facilitate deployment, with Terraform managing infrastructure as code. Monitoring relies on Prometheus and Grafana for real-time performance tracking.
Benefits
Equity options align employees with the company's long-term success in private markets. The compensation package includes an attractive salary with performance-based bonus structure. Professional development is supported through further education programs and continuous learning opportunities. The modern workplace offers flexible working hours with no explicit remote policy stated. Employees collaborate with a highly qualified team in a growth-oriented environment where entrepreneurial professionals can leverage their networks and participate directly in the firm's success.
