Background
I could not verify from public primary sources that Burkhardt Funk is currently a Managing Director at Parklane Capital or an active angel investor. The current Parklane Capital management page publicly lists Dr. Bjoern H. Soeder, Daniel Groezinger, and Sven Schroeder as Managing Directors, but does not list Burkhardt Funk.
Parklane Capital Beteiligungsberatung GmbH is a Hamburg-based M&A and corporate finance boutique focused on growth companies in the technology, internet, and media sectors. The firm states that it has more than 15 years of M&A experience, more than 150 transactions, and more than EUR 4.5 billion in transaction volume.
The firm’s public materials emphasize entrepreneurial and investment-banking experience, partner-level involvement, and a network of strategic buyers, financial investors, and family offices. However, I found no public source confirming Burkhardt Funk’s education, career history, investment role, personal investment thesis, or direct portfolio.
