Strategic value creation

Our investment philosophy centers on building long-term value through active involvement, strategic guidance, and sustainable growth initiatives.

Our vision is to forge true partnerships that drive growth and long-term success. We focus on direct, majority participations, taking an active role strategically and potentially in operations. 

We seek entrepreneurial founders driven by passion, resilience, and a long-term mindset, viewing their company as their life’s work. Our approach is straightforward (“recht door de voordeur”), honest, and built on enduring, trust-based partnerships—and we want to have fun, what’s the point of doing it otherwise.

As a dedicated strategic partner, often the sole investor, we support founders throughout their journey. We embrace all investment types, from early-stage to established businesses, including a-typical opportunities.
