Our Partners

WE CREATE VALUE

Anwert Technologies enables active entrepreneurs, owner families, private foundations, financial investors, or corporations – as an alternative to private equity and pure strategic corporate investors – a value-oriented sale and ensures the independent further development of the company.

An entrepreneurial participation of the management or a re-participation of the previous shareholders is welcomed – under clearly defined conditions for both sides.

For scale-up companies, we’re an entrepreneurial alternative to VC financing.

Enabling the Next Development Step Together

Anwert Technologies is convinced that a company can develop optimally if all partners involved in the transaction process work together side-by-side. These are

  • a prudent seller,
  • an entrepreneurial management team
  • and a long-term oriented new owner.
Contacting Anwert Technologies is a must for
  • entrepreneurs: We ensure the independent continuation of the company and are a partner with extensive industry and investment experience.
  • Investors: Investors can participate in the value increase along the company’s development as part of their engagement.
  • Banks, Advisors, Tax Advisors, Lawyers, and M&A Houses: We offer long-term and partnership-based collaboration.
