A Permanent Home for “Small” Businesses

What we do >>CONTACT US >>

what we do

We buy and grow Belgium-based companies with the intent of never selling. We work with business owners to transition their legacies to a permanent home. After a business joins our family, we invest in its people and operations so we can grow together for the next generation and beyond.

Purchase

A simple, transparent process,
a quick closing in 3 months or less,
and a fair price.

transition

We build trust with the team,
customers and vendors while
the business retains independence.

grow

As the new, permanent owner,
we invest in the business, people and operations (i.e. sales, tech, HR, etc.)

criteria

Companies in our family usually have many of the following characteristics:

criteria

  • HQ located in Belgium
  • Annual revenues of €3-30 million
  • Track record of consistent revenues and profits
  • “Recurring” revenue streams that are less sensitive to economic cycles

business owner

  • Seeking retirement or less day-to-day involvement
  • Prefers a permanent new owner to grow the business’s legacy and keep all employees on staff
  • Keep “skin in the game” via seller note or small ownership stake
  • Reasonable valuation expectation

Why sell to us?

We are a fully-committed, local buyer and operator of Belgium-based businesses. Our goal is to grow businesses and their owners’ legacies for the long term. We do so by providing liquidity, growth capital and day-to-day management.

Who we are

We are a team of entrepreneurs, operators and investors. We founded an enterprise software company focused on data analytics for mobile operators and sold it to a listed Swedish group. In 2024 we acquired Infobel, the Belgian business data company, and we have spent the years since building a group around it. We know what the years after a sale actually look like, because we have lived them.
