Business Development Partner
We have built up and developed EMERAM Capital Partners as an independent SME. Our relationship with our portfolio companies is based on partnership on equal terms. We regard ourselves as a growth partner for companies and business owners. On their journey to new stages of development, we support our portfolio companies and their management with capital and expertise. We call this business development partnership.
We help our portfolio companies to constantly take their opportunities and achieve further organic and inorganic growth. That is why we are particularly focused on strengthening our equity investments through follow-on acquisitions. As a result, they expand their range of services or tap into new markets and target groups.
In our capacity as a business development partner, we act as an outsourced department. Consequently, the portfolio companies of the funds that we advise receive our extensive support and guidance in their day-to-day business. Our services are focused on six areas of expertise:
- strategy development
- organizational design
- personal development
- operational excellence
- digitalisation
- ESG
As a result, our portfolio companies benefit from our expertise and experience, which are typically provided by the Business Development Department at large companies.
The team
