Investing in companies. Creating value.

Investment Strategy

We invest in established mid-sized companies with significant strategic and operational development potential. Our strategy aims at the long-term, sustainable development of the companies in which we invest. We understand the specific needs of mid-sized companies and are also experienced in handling complex situations. From a Supervisory Board position, we support our companies in their growth plans, operational development, and the strengthening of their long-term competitiveness in order to ensure they are strongly positioned for the future.

We can help finance add-on acquisitions and allocate additional capital to strategic growth initiatives that increase the company’s value.

We typically invest in companies with an EBITDA of approx. €5-75m, headquartered in Germany, Austria, Switzerland or neighbouring countries. At the same time, these companies operate a sustainable, established business model in a stable or growing market and have clearly identified strategic and operational development opportunities.

Our investment strategy focuses on the following industries:

Industrial Goods & Services

We believe that sustainable business models can be found in nearly all industries. This is why we focus our investment strategy on the development opportunities of a company rather than particular industries.

Long-term success as a goal:

We can support our companies for up to 12 years. Even though our average investment cycle is typically 5-7 years, our strategic focus is always on the companies’ long-term value. We are proud to hand over future-ready companies that can further develop their full potential under new ownership.
