Case Studies
Testimonials from entrepreneurs who have partnered with us

Pawel

Alex

Vito

Luis


The mentorship from the team and support from the wide network were instrumental in helping us find a high-quality business, successfully and sustainably transition it into a pure-play SaaS model, establish focused fundamentals for scalable growth, and achieve a subsequent exit. Having the same partner with such breadth and depth of experience from the very beginning of our search allowed us to build a trusting relationship that we know we can always lean on.
Pawel
Pawel and his partner Marek acquired Velis, transitioned the business to B2B SaaS, scaled it internationally, and exited to a PE buyer


Thanks to the close guidance of the team as experienced investors and advisory board members, we were able to double our results within two years. His entrepreneurial spirit and extensive private equity experience played a crucial role in rapidly establishing sustainable operational excellence within the company and identifying the right strategic moves
Alex
Alex and his partner Chris acquired MediaKom, a BPO company for private and public health insurances


Over the years the team was very helpful in particular about how to grow the business inorganically, how to incentivize the management and position the company for an exit
Vito
acquired LGL, a food labelling business, scaled the platform through multiple tuck-in acquisitions, and exited to a PE buyer after four years


It has been an absolute privilege to partner with you and we hope we can do it again in the future. You’ve been amazing partners to Lorenzo and I, always available to discuss and share ideas, and showing continuous support and empathy towards us as Searchers and as co-CEOs. We really thank you for that
Luis
Luis and his partner Lorenzo acquired CTAIMA, a contractor management & compliance software company, modernized it into a SaaS platform, executed a tuck-in acquisition strategy, and exited to a leading PE fund after four years with attractive returns
