PANews November 29 news, according to Jin10 reports, German World Cup key football player Mario Götze is 33 years old this year, an age at which players typically start considering life after their professional sports careers. However, Götze has been preparing for this for years, having built a strong personal investment portfolio that will continue to grow after the end of his first career. About seven years ago, his first venture capital deal involved a startup spun off from Dortmund University. Götze's investment vehicles Companion-M focus on early-stage startups in fields such as software, healthcare, cybersecurity, and biotechnology. Götze and a small advisory team typically review around 100 potential deals each month and make one or two angel investments in companies entering the seed or pre-seed stage. Götze stated that he is also open to investing in private credit and is considering adding one or two more investments before the end of the year. It is reported that Gotze had previously invested in NFTs and also changed his X name to mariogotze.eth (which still retains this X account name), while also changing the X account profile picture to Smolverse NFT with the caption “Taking a step in the crypto space” (which has now been adjusted to another profile picture).
