WHAT WE SOLVE

Your European Deal Pipeline Is Broken

Problems Family Offices face when sourcing European targets

DACH Expansion

Hidden Champion Discovery

Succession Signal Detection

European Target Sourcing

Invisible Deal Flow

The best European acquisition targets never appear in transaction databases. Family-owned Mittelstand companies, Nordic niche leaders, UK manufacturers – they don't run processes. They don't hire advisors. They're invisible to your current sourcing tools. We find them before they're on anyone's radar.

Succession Timing

50% of European SME owners are over 60. Many have no succession plan. The question isn't IF they'll sell – it's WHEN. We detect the signals: aging founders, management gaps, strategic pivots – and surface targets at the moment they become receptive.

Signal Detection That Creates Timing Advantage

We don't just find companies – we detect when they're ready. Succession indicators (founder age, management changes), growth signals (hiring, patents, new locations), and distress markers (restructuring, litigation). First-mover advantage isn't luck – it's intelligence.

HOW TO WORK WITH US

Re-Inventing European Deal Sourcing

Why Your Current Tools Fail You

The Deal Database Problem

• Shows deals that already happened – not opportunities that could happen • European SME coverage is not existent in detail • No succession signals, no ownership data, no timing intelligence • Same data as every other Family Office – zero edge • Optimized for PE deal tracking, not SME origination

The Local Advisor Model

• €50-100K per country for a single market scan • 3-6 months to deliver meaningful deal flow • Network-dependent – they show you what they know, not what exists • No cross-border visibility – Germany expert doesn't know Nordic market • Conflict of interest – they also work for sellers

European Data Infrastructure

500K+ SMEs on Demand. 15+ public registers to reach. Continuous signal detection.

Our proprietary data enrichment unifies fragmented European Hidden Champions into an unique Investment Case. AI agents scan financial filings, ownership changes, management movements, and market signals – identifying targets that match your criteria and timing windows for engagement. These Capabilities doesn't exist anywhere else. Not in standard deal databases. Not at your local M&A advisor. It's your unfair advantage in European deal sourcing.
