GERMANY
Background
| M |
The first German BAN was set up in 1998. The same year also saw the creation of BAND, a national organisation whose objective is to raise awareness about the importance of regional BANs as factors of the emergence of a new entrepreneurial culture. BAND is sponsored by the Federal Ministry for Economics and Technology and by leading state agencies as well as by bodies from the financial sector and the industries. These original sponsors mainly formed the membership. BAND developed strong relations with potent media -partners. BAND has most recently restructured the membership to include Business Angel Networks. The Board has changed in 2000 and the headquarters moved to Essen, North Rhine-Westphalia. BAND provides information for entrepreneurs and Business Angels and the general public about Business Angel culture and acts as speaker for their interest. BAND provides and organizes further education for all players in the market of Private Equity.

Lobbying
BAND is namely conducting actions to secure a more attractive tax status for Business Angels and fight against tax discrimination against investment in the shares of unlisted companies compared to other forms of tangible or intangible investment.
