Lars Hinrichs is the Founder and CEO of Cinco Capital, a single-family office in Hamburg established in 2002 using wealth from his sale of the business-networking platform XING. While he previously founded the pre-seed initiative HackFwd, Cinco Capital now concentrates exclusively on later-stage, growth-phase technology companies in Europe and North America. The firm deploys evergreen capital into growth-stage software, digital infrastructure, and technology businesses, often co-investing alongside sector-specialist funds rather than leading deals alone. Notable portfolio companies associated with Hinrichs include Planetly and doo.net, which reached Series A, alongside his foundational venture XING. Hinrichs operates under the distinctive public motto that “Everything that can be digital will become digital,” reflecting his focus on groundbreaking ideas involving the newest technologies. He also serves on supervisory boards such as Deutsche Telekom AG and maintains a background as the world’s first Web 2.0 company IPO overseer through XING.
