ABACON Capital is a family-owned investment firm that serves as the investment vehicle for the Büll Family Office, based in Hamburg, Germany. The firm focuses on making long-term, entrepreneurial investments across both public and private markets.

ABACON Capital emphasizes co-elevating people, purpose, and sustainable growth, aiming for a prosperous society and planet.

The Büll Family Office, with a heritage spanning over 50 years, was founded by Albert Büll, who established the B&L Group in 1970, initially focusing on real estate development. ABACON Capital was established in 2021 as an extension of this family office to specifically manage liquid assets, venture capital commitments, and direct investments in startups across various stages. This strategic evolution allows the family office to blend its industrial asset management experience with a focus on disruptive innovation.

ABACON Capital's portfolio includes investments in companies such as Entrix, a platform for energy storage optimization and trading; CustomCells, a developer of battery cells for e-mobility; Tomorrow, a digital bank; and Wirelane, a provider of plug-in charging systems. They have also invested in Co-Power, an energy management solutions provider, and were involved in the acquisition of deineStudienfinanzierung, a student loan platform. The firm typically invests in Seed and Series B stages, and sometimes later stages, demonstrating a flexible approach to company growth.

The team at ABACON Capital is small and diverse, valuing teamwork and strategic partnerships. Key individuals include Albert Büll, the founder of the broader Büll Group; Tobias Krauss, CEO of the family office and Managing Director of ABACON Capital; and Sven Rossmann, the Chief Investment Officer.
