Our contribution

Committed owners and aligned interests

We invest our own money and think and act as entrepreneurs, not as investors. That is why we attach great importance to aligning the interests of the owners, entrepreneurs and management team as well as the companies towards a common vision.

 

We play an active role as owners and use our vast experience from highly successful investment companies for the positive development of our companies. We leave the operational management to the management team and are involved in the board of directors.

 

We actively support entrepreneurs and management teams in the definition and implementation of a clear and ambitious vision and business strategy and provide specialist expertise from our network to support them effectively.

 

We promote a culture based on transparency, constructive collaboration, high performance, as well as a strong commitment to quality. We share the success with the key stakeholders.

 

We are flexible and reliable partners with fast decision making. We focuse on the most important succes factors with the greates impact.

Network

Targeted support

In our many years of experience in the investment business, we have learned that the right team composition and the right expertise, if used well, are the basis for the successful development of a company. That is why we provide the companies we invest in with targeted support from our network.
