The new $ 270m fund of Bosch Ventures is interested in North America.

BOSCH’s Venture Arm has a new $ 270 million fund that will continue to invest in the tradition of investing in Deep Tech Startup. And this time, Bosch Ventures plans to put more money into a North American new company.

Beginning in 2007, Bosch Ventures is in the sixth fund. Corporate VC is a global fund, but today’s focus is greater to North America.

This strategy may seem contradictory in areas that are affected by Trump administrative policies, in areas that have caused the US trade war with China, volatile stock market and economic downturn. But INGO RAMESOHL, managing director of Bosch Ventures, said TechCrunch’s transaction flow in North America is powerful at any time.

Ramesohl said, “There are a lot of positive energy.” People do not stop innovation and do not interfere. That’s why it’s a great time for new investments. “

The company, which has an office in Silicon Valley, Boston, Germany, Tel Aviv and China, usually invests between $ 5 million and $ 10 million. Ramesohl said that it would invest 20 to 25 in this fund.

Ramesohl said, “This is basically a series of success stories of the last fund.

The company is still investing in automobiles, climate technology, cyber security, semiconductor manufacturing, energy efficiency and enterprise software. It is also high in the list to apply AI tools to the production AI, especially the physical world, such as manufacturing.

Ramesohl said, “We are not focusing entirely on the AI ​​GEN, but nevertheless, AI has been the center of a manufacturer since 2017, when the AI ​​was established since 2017, which was developed or produced using AI, a milestone hit by the end of 2023.

“Gen AI is undergoing a lot of changes and at the same time enables many new businesses and many new innovations,” he pointed out that AI’s most promising application is running.
