BonVenture Management GmbH (BVM) is a socially-responsible venture capital firm established in 2003 and headquartered in Munich, Germany. BVM aims to use venture capital investing as a means to tackle social and ecological problems in the German-speaking countries. They also strive to improve the economic efficiency, transparency and sustainability of the social and ecological sectors. The firm manages two portfolios, one structured as a venture capital fund in which investors become limited partners, and the other set up as a foundation receiving tax-deductible contributions. BVM is based on the idea that in view of growing social and ecological issues as well as widespread public sector deficits, there should be a shift toward all citizens using their material and intellectual resources to help develop new solutions, advocating among policy-makers and society at large, and encouraging other citizens to contribute to and replicate these solutions.

Volunteer Vision GmbH provides online mentoring and corporate volunteering services. Its programs include apprenticeship and studies, integration and language, school and education and job and career. The company was founded by Suska Dreesbach-Bundy, Barbara Scheck and Julia Winkler and is headquartered in Munich, MD.
