How we work

Capital and entrepreneurial experience at every stage

We have founded, run and grown SMEs. We put that experience at the service of every searcher we work with.

Search phase

We finance the search so you can focus full time on finding, analysing and negotiating the acquisition.

Search and acquisition

We know the Spanish business landscape and the seller’s perspective: what drives an owner to sell and how to approach them.

Operations

We sit on the board, share what has worked —and what hasn’t— and are there when decisions get hard.

Equity gap

Short of capital to close the deal?

When a deal is about to close and a gap threatens it, we act fast: clear terms and a decision process designed not to lose well-structured deals.

Response within 48 hours to equity gap enquiries with an advanced process.
