Stefan Gehrer

Dr. Stefan Gehrer is a partner and tax advisor at Lenz, Bereuter, Gehrer Wirtschaftsprüfungs- und SteuerberatungsgmbH & Co KG, an Austrian tax advisory and audit firm with offices in Dornbirn and Hard. The firm's own contact pages list him as “Gesellschafter, Steuerberater” at the Dornbirn office, and its firm page lists him among management alongside Dr. Reinhold Bereuter and Mag. Thomas Daxer.

Company-register data from FirmenABC identifies Dr. Gehrer as a managing director of Lenz, Bereuter, Gehrer, authorized to represent the firm alone, and also as a shareholder and limited partner. The same record states the current firm form began on 17 September 2010 and describes its activities as auditing, tax advisory, accounting, payroll, balance-sheet presentation, business valuation, business consulting, start-up advisory, and succession advisory.

The firm's website says the practice has existed for more than 30 years and serves clients through two Vorarlberg offices. Its service pages show a strong SME finance and advisory orientation: business plans, legal-form choice, support in financing discussions, business valuation using income-value or discounted-cash-flow methods, budgeting, break-even analysis, cost accounting, investment-decision advice, company succession, and restructuring-related advice.

Separately, Austrian company-register data for Luna Trading GmbH lists Dr. Stefan Gehrer, born 30 January 1970, as managing director from 18 March 2024. I did not find a public education profile, personal investment thesis, or a verified investor biography for Dr. Gehrer beyond the stub data and company/advisory records above.

• Public sources do not disclose a personal angel-investing thesis, check size, target sectors, or portfolio construction approach for Dr. Gehrer.
• The clearest verifiable pattern is financial, tax, and corporate-structuring expertise for Austrian SMEs and founders: Lenz, Bereuter, Gehrer explicitly offers start-up advisory, business-plan preparation, legal-form advice, support in financing discussions, business valuation, investment-decision advice, and company-succession consulting.
• The firm's public start-up content tracks Austrian seed/start-up financing infrastructure, including aws PreSeed/Seed funding, the aws Business Angel Fund, and risk-capital incentives, indicating familiarity with Austrian early-stage financing mechanics.
• Based on public evidence, founders should treat him primarily as a Vorarlberg-based tax advisor, company-formation adviser, valuation adviser, and possible private angel contact rather than as an institutional VC with a published mandate.
