famPlus GmbH, a Munich, Germany-based online platform that offers employers an online platform for family support services, has completed a first round of financing of undisclosed amount.
Investors include High-Tech Gründerfonds (HTGF), Bayern Kapital and other business angels.
The company intends to use the funds to accelerate growth and product development in the coming months.
Founded in Summer 2010 by Julia Gänzler and Dr. Markus Solf, Managing Director, famPlus currently acts as a broker for child care, i.e. child minders, nannies and babysitters, with senior nursing care to follow. For the second stage, the company is planning a comparable service for nursing care and household-related services.
Providers are selected on the basis of standardized quality factors, checked and presented on the online platform. Employers provide the service to emplyees, who can then choose the right solution for their specific need on their own.
Customers include Robert Bosch GmbH, Daimler AG, DEKRA, GP Grenzach (Bayer Healthcare), SWR and Wüstenrot & Württembergische, Bayerische Landesbank, LBS and companies from Bavaria, Baden-Württemburg and Hessen.
The service will be available nationwide by the end of the year.
