Weitnauer advises Berlin-based camper sharing platform PaulCamper GmbH on further financing round

The Berlin-based sharing platform for campervans and caravans received further growth capital from international investors in a financing round. The round is led by existing investor Russmedia Equity Partners, a Liechtenstein-based investor in and operator of online marketplaces, aggregators and SaaS solutions with a portfolio of 19 digital platform businesses across six countries in Europe. Further investors included J Ventures, an early stage technology fund founded by Joshua Jacobson and John Nordin, based in New York City, as well as Adevinta Ventures, a Norway-based investor in marketplace startups and marketplace specialist operating in 16 countries worldwide.

 

Weitnauer advises PaulCamper in financing matters since 2017 and most recently advised PaulCamper in the Series A financing round in mid-2019, when the startup raised an aggregate amount of EUR 7 million. In the financing round closed in late August 2020, the law firm, which specializes primarily in venture capital, further strengthened its relationship with PaulCamper.
