Why We Focus On This?
Why We Focus On This?
Personal experience:
Coming from Italy, Simone, the founder, witnessed his grandfather sell his pizzeria to outside the family. The family knew how much effort and time it took to run it, and were not interested in continuing it.
After hearing business succession was a common issue, the idea to help find business successors arose.
Preserving EU's Businesses
Preserving EU's Businesses
Europe's small and medium businesses are its backbone, and millions of jobs are at stake if successions do not occur. How good would it be to exit knowing the progression of your business will continue? That employees will remain? M&A doesn't have to butcher the identity, brand and culture of these businesses.
We are EU's successions platform.
Mission: Real successions
Why “real”? To achieve a truly effective succession, we prioritize the intangible, often postponed aspects of the M&A process. A real succession is one in which both parties grasp the enterprise’s core values and agree on the roadmap for its continued operation - rather than simply executing a buyout and wholesale transformation. We rely on this approach to reach our vision.
