As an entrepreneur, you think about the long run and beyond your own time at the company. Part of this means setting up your succession to make possible a promising future for the company and its employees.
We can help you with this.
SHAPING AND DEVELOPING YOUR BUSINESS TOGETHER
WE TAKE COMPANIES TO THE NEXT STAGE IN THEIR EVOLUTION
We are specialized in turning promising medium-sized companies into international groups and expanding their business.
What exactly does that mean? Your company is a technological leader in your market niche, has a turnover of EUR 10 million to EUR 80 million, is based in Germany, Austria, or Switzerland (the DACH region), and is set for international growth.
Success is sure to follow when you stay on board as a minority shareholder. We will work with you and your management team to pursue a well-defined and jointly developed Buy & Build strategy for your company. With targeted add-on investments, we will form a strong and technologically leading industrial group doing business worldwide, often even as the market leader.
