Hi, I‘m Martin.
INVESTOR, BUSINESS ENTHUSIAST, MULTIPOTENTIALITE
I am looking to buy family or founder owned businesses located in Europe.
My goal is to build upon the strong foundation of an enduring business. Every company was built to fulfill a purpose and a dedicated need. It has grown a team of people that work together to make others lives a little better every day.
I believe it is our moral obligation to preserve and grow what has been established over the years.
I want to help business owners find a meaningful long term home for their business and find opportunities for their team to grow alongside the business as well.
My Investment Approach
I am not an investment trust or a private equity shark. I’m looking to acquire & grow enduring family or founder owned businesses and to grow teams and people. I value honest and transparent communication, respectful and cooperative interaction. I know that great deals are partnerships not transactions.
My Acquisition Criteria
I am looking to buy family or founder owned businesses located in Europe that
- are at least 10 years in business
- have between 1-15 Mio € in Top-Line Revenue
- have a 2-digit Profit Margin (EBITDA) – could be less in asset heavy industries
- have at least 10 employees
My acquisition criteria are industry agnostic. I have a background in the IT industry – that is my backyard. But I am also looking for Design, Digital Marketing, e-Learning, Services or Manufacturing and I am open to having a look at any industry. There are so many exciting businesses that I don’t want to exclude any specific industry.
