Zurich / Frankfurt, October 1, 2025 – Stableton Financial, a globally leading institutional investor in private blue-chip tech companies, today announced the appointment of Gero Schomann as Global Head of Wealth and Strategic Partnerships, effective October 1, 2025.

Schomann joins Stableton from DWS, where he served as Head of Sales for Germany and Austria. With a strong track record in driving growth and market expansion, Schomann will play a pivotal role in leading Stableton’s global distribution strategy. He will focus on building and deepening partnerships with private banks, wealth managers and family offices, expanding Stableton’s presence across German-speaking markets, Europe, and internationally.

"I’m excited to join Stableton at such a transformative moment for private markets,” said Schomann. “After many years in a large corporate environment, I look forward to building global distribution structures in a more entrepreneurial and agile setting. Stableton’s unique offering—systematic, semi-liquid, and index fund-like exposure to the world’s Top 20 most valuable private technology companies—immediately convinced me of its institutional strength.”

Institutional-Grade Private Market Solutions

Stableton provides a systematic, passive and low-cost investment portfolio into the world’s Top 20 most valuable private market leaders, including OpenAI, Anthropic and Databricks, delivering growth equity as a scalable, semi-liquid, and trusted asset class for institutional investors. Headquartered in Zurich with offices in Zug, Berlin, and Riga, the firm has completed more than 130 transactions and partnered with over 100 sourcing partners.

Its flagship Stableton Unicorn Top 20 strategy developed in collaboration with Morningstar, is the world’s first systematic, index fund-like portfolio of the 20 most valuable private technology companies. The strategy combines an evergreen structure with quarterly liquidity, no performance fee, and full transparency—setting a new standard for institutional-grade private blue-chip tech investing.

Alongside the strategy, Stableton offers institutional thematic solutions to allow investors to participate in high-conviction, sector-specific growth opportunities across emerging themes such as AI, Fintech, and Robotics to provide institutions exposure to transformative long-term trends while maintaining alignment with their strategic investment objectives.

Andreas Bezner, Co-Founder & CEO of Stableton, commented: "Gero's appointment marks a major milestone in our global expansion as we continue to scale. His deep expertise in institutional distribution and strategic partnerships positions him perfectly to accelerate our mission at a critical inflection point: with over 1,565 unicorns valued at $5.2 trillion, the most transformative innovations in AI, fintech, and other disruptive sectors are being built in private markets, where companies are staying private longer and capturing more value before IPOs. Gero will lead our efforts to provide institutions with systematic portfolio exposure to the world's Top 20 private blue-chip tech leaders—delivering diversified allocation with the efficiency, transparency, and governance that sophisticated allocators demand.”

Konstantin Heiermann, Co-Founder & CFO of Stableton, added: "We’re delighted to welcome Gero to the leadership team. As we manage half a billion dollars in assets and continue to expand our institutional footprint, Gero's proven track record in building scalable distribution networks will be crucial to our next phase of growth. His ability to forge deep partnerships with private banks, wealth managers, and family offices worldwide will strengthen our capital formation capabilities and accelerate our global reach.”
