Owners and founders across Europe face real hurdles in growth and succession.
For decades, professional M&A advisory was built for large corporates — not for the mid-market. Many successful SMBs still navigate complex, high-cost processes alone — without structured preparation, modern operations, or reliable access to qualified buyers. Outdated tools and limited digitalization continue to suppress EBITDA, valuations, and deal readiness.
No exit preparation
Without structured preparation, companies often sell below their true worth. Strengthening operations, data, and narrative increases valuation by 20–30 %.
High advisory fees
Traditional banks charge 5–8 % plus retainers — uneconomical for many mid-market transactions.
Limited buyer access
Finding qualified buyers takes months and depends on outdated personal networks. Our AI match engine uncovers 10× more strategic acquirers — in weeks, not months.
Untapped performance
Inefficiencies, missing KPIs, and low digitalization reduce profitability and enterprise value. Modernizing operations lifts EBITDA and valuation potential.
