Board Chair and Christian Vollmann as Deputy Chair 
- Supervisory Board Chair Verena Mohaupt, partner at a renowned private equity fund and Supervisory Board member at 
home24 and Pacifico Renewables Yield AG 
- Other Supervisory Board members are business angel and tech entrepreneur Christian Vollmann (nebenan.de), attorney

- New structure to accelerate strategic growth and Europe-wide expansion 
Berlin, 17 February 2021 - 
LINUS Digital Finance becomes a stock corporation and appoints a Supervisory Board with four members. The adjustments 
to its structure and the addition of high calibre personnel allow the Berlin-based finance technology company to 
prepare itself for the rapid expansion of its business. The fintech company, founded in 2016, is the first German 
company to offer private individuals and small professional investors throughout the Eurozone direct, digital access to 
high-quality real estate investments through its proprietary finance platform. This allows LINUS to open up 
institutional investments in this asset class to a very large group of new investors formerly unable to access such 
lucrative opportunities. 
Frederic Olbert, an investment banker previously with Goldman Sachs, joined LINUS to become its Chief Financial 
Officer. Together with founder and CEO David Neuhoff he will form the board of management of LINUS Digital Finance AG. 
Verena Mohaupt, an experienced member of numerous Supervisory Boards and a private equity investor, was appointed as 
Chair of the Supervisory Board. She will be joined by an interdisciplinary team comprising the business angel and tech 
entrepreneur Christian Vollmann (nebenan.de), the attorney Jennifer Brenke (Leonhardt Rattunde), and the venture 
capital investor Kristian Schmidt-Garve (MIG Verwaltungs AG). 
"The new corporate form is the next logical step for LINUS to accelerate the already dynamic pace of our expansion. We 
look forward to working with our highly experienced Supervisory Board to broaden our product offering and to rapidly 
grow the number of clients that we provide digital access to institutional real estate investments throughout Europe 
to," stated David Neuhoff, CEO of LINUS Digital Finance. 
Supervisory Board with extensive private equity, start-up and scaling experience 
The members of the Supervisory Board have long and diverse track records in areas such as business and real estate law, 
private equity, M&A, venture capital, company building and business development. 
Supervisory Board Chair Verena Mohaupt has extensive experience as a member of Supervisory Boards, including at home24 
and Pacifico Renewables Yield AG, and as a partner in a renowned private equity fund. Verena Mohaupt has previously 
been employed at Allianz Capital Partners (ACP), McKinsey & Co. and at Goldman Sachs and was the co-founder and chair 
of ciao.com AG. She holds an MBA from INSEAD and a bachelor's degree in business administration from the University of 
Münster. 
"I am very much looking forward to working with LINUS in writing the coming chapters in its wonderful success story. 
This fintech has demonstrated the enormous potential that investors can tap into at the intersection between digital 
platforms and real estate investments," said Verena Mohaupt, the Chair of the Supervisory Board of LINUS Digital 
Finance. 
Christian Vollmann, a widely acknowledged expert in the field of start-ups, takes up the role of Deputy Chair of the 
Supervisory Board. The business administration graduate boasts an impressive track record having (co-)founded 75 
companies since 2005, including the social network StudiVZ and the travel portal Trivago. In 2015, he founded the 
social neighbourhood network nebenan.de, which has 1.7 million users today. In 2017, Vollmann was honoured with the 
Business Angel of the Year award. He is also involved in PropTech1 Ventures as a venture partner and member of the 
investment committee. Proptech 1 Ventures is Germany's first venture capital fund primarily investing in the 
digitalisation of the real estate industry.
