AND INVESTORS
What?
LS&C invests as Family Office in Digital Assets, Venture Capital and Real Estate.
How?
Independence in equity management at LS&C ensures rapid yet mindful investment choices, reflecting the owners entrepreneurial ethos.
Why?
In the face of increasingly accelerating progress, we want to leave behind traces to lead steadfast into a better future. That is why we desire to joyously tear down existing concepts when they have become obsolete burdens and give our all to develope and build new sustainable structures. This is how we manage to maintain our core values in a constantly changing environment while using the ever rising tide of digitisation for our purposes rather than being swept away by the current zeitgeist and do what we love most – to create substance.
What is LS&C?
A family office, representing the personal and strategic investment vehicle of entrepreneur Ludwig Schroedl. LS&C is exclusively utilizing its own capital to foster a dynamic and forward-thinking portfolio. Distinct in its approach, we operate independently, free from external fund influences, allowing for direct alignment with our investment principles. This structure ensures legal clarity and a strong focus on innovative investments that reflect our commitment to driving progress and value.
Which companies attract direct investments from LS&C?
Our investment strategy is guided by a dynamic playbook that prioritizes founder-market-product fit above all else. While health and longevity are areas of deep interest, our approach is not confined to any single sector. Instead, we seek out opportunities where our involvement can act as a force multiplier—whether in founding, scaling, or exiting a company. If a business aligns with criteria for innovation, strategic potential, and the ability to create a 10x impact with our support, we will invest, regardless of the industry.
Why is LS&C growing so fast?
LS&C's rapid growth is driven by capital earned through the entrepreneurial activities of its team and Lud Schroedl. By creating and scaling (even failing) with companies such as ado, INAI, SCHROEHOF, and NOVION - with over $50 million in recurring revenue —we practice what we preach. Some of these companies have since been successfully sold to private equity or strategic partners, but the entire value chain, from founding to exit, was managed internally.
The expertise in each phase-company creation, scaling, and (sometimes) eventual exit— requires specialized knowledge, the right talent, and finely- tuned processes. This expertise is applied to every company within our portfolio, which is the key reason behind the rapid growth of our assets under management.
How to request paid help from LS&C?
In recent years, we’ve received countless requests for personalized, paid consultancy services from both family offices seeking strategic insights and (early-stage) companies looking for guidance. Until now, we’ve consistently declined these requests. Finding and retaining top talent with the specialized skill set we require is incredibly rare. We’ve been fortunate to build a team of the best, but their time is extremely valuable and limited. For that reason, we’ve only been able to laser-focus their attention on our portfolio companies. However, with growing demand, we’ve now carefully opened up select opportunities for collaboration through lsandc.club for companies that pass our application process and present clear potential for future investment. This does not guarantee an immediate investment, but it allows us to assess the business case through a period of cooperation. If we see alignment in vision and opportunity, investment may follow.
What drives the interest in Digital Assets?
Our commitment to Digital Assets is not just an investment strategy; it's a belief in the transformative power of blockchain and Web3 technologies. Our approach is discerning and visionary, seeking out projects where technology meets practicality, ensuring our investments are not just profitable, but pivotal. We believe in the potential of decentralized systems to redefine transactions, empower individuals, and create a more equitable digital economy. By investing in Blockchain and Web3 companies, we are not just participants in this digital revolution; we are its advocates and architects. At LS&C, we're forging a future where digital assets are integral to global progress, reflecting our deep-rooted belief in innovation, integrity, and impact.
Since when is LS&C investing?
LS&C has been actively operating as a company since 2020, with our foundation rooted in the early investments made by our founder, through his operational company since 2016. Over these years, we have successfully leveraged strategic assets to build a robust, eight-figure portfolio. Our portfolio is carefully balanced, ensuring solidity and resilience even under challenging market conditions.
Can third parties invest in LS&C?
Currently, LS&C operates exclusively with its own capital and does not offer direct investment opportunities for third parties. However, we welcome opportunities for co-investment where external investors can invest alongside us in specific ventures. This approach allows us to maintain our strategic investment focus while offering collaborative investment opportunities under specific conditions.
