Startup Membership terms
These terms apply when a startup joins the Calmar Startup Membership on calmar.vc. By ticking the box on the sign-up page, the startup accepts them in place of a signed contract.
Version of 6 October 2026
1. Parties
The membership is agreed between G8Way Ventures GmbH, FN 444850t, Elisabethstraße 13/1/13, 1010 Vienna, Austria, as owner of the Calmar brand (“Calmar”), and the company that signs up (the “Partner”). Full company details are in the imprint.
2. What the membership includes
- A personalised clubroom to invite and manage investors.
- Pooling and syndication of investors for a clean cap table (fees under 4).
- The Calmar ecosystem, to find fitting co-investors in Europe.
- The Calmar Fundraising Academy.
- Access to the Calmar mentoring network (coming soon).
- Access to the Calmar expert pool (coming soon).
3. Membership fee
The membership fee is EUR 950 per year or EUR 99 per month, as chosen on sign-up. It is a recurring fee and grants the Partner the ongoing licence to use the clubroom and the services listed in 2.
Partners who join before 1 January 2027 pay no membership fee for their first three months; the recurring fee starts after that. With yearly payment, the first yearly fee is due in the fourth month and covers the twelve months that follow.
4. Optional services
Pooling and syndication
If the Partner pools and syndicates investors through Calmar’s pooling solution, a separate percentage-based fee applies. It is charged when the transaction is carried out, applies to each round that is pooled, and is agreed with the Partner before the round is pooled.
Expert sessions
A coaching session booked in the Calmar expert pool may cost an additional EUR 100 per hour.
Matchmaking
The matchmaking tools are part of the membership. If the Partner qualifies to use the matchmaking system to find further investors through the Calmar ecosystem, a commission on the amount invested may be payable by the Partner; it is agreed with the Partner beforehand.
