Our Team
We bring deep operational expertise and get our hands dirty building platforms.
Our multidisciplinary team combines backgrounds in software development, M&A and operations to drive value creation.
Market Selection & Opportunity
We focus on fragmented, compliance-driven sectors where integration and density create scale advantages. By prioritizing sub-verticals with recurring local demand, we build platforms that are resilient and scalable.
Integration & Operational Execution
Every acquisition follows a structured 30/60/100-day playbook to capture synergies from integration. We differentiate from traditional PE by driving operational improvements hands-on, rather than relying on financial engineering to generate high returns for our investors.
Technology & AI-Driven Value Creation
From day one, we embed AI and digital solutions to cut costs, improve service, and unlock data-driven decision making. Standardized systems enable pricing optimization, retention, and long-term operating leverage across the platforms. Our technology stack is designed and optimized for services businesses.
Acquisition & M&A Strategy
We target founder-led SMEs under €10m revenue, acquired at conservative multiples (<6x EBITDA). With over 50% of deals directly sourced, we ensure discipline in both pricing and operational due diligence.
