Building Bridges for Portfolio Value
Investors want to build successful portfolios, and being successful means creating value growth and realizing exit returns. Therefore, investors need to seek any potential for their portfolio company to grow revenue domestically and to enter new markets.
In this regard, internationalization of portfolio companies is…
…difficult
International scale-up is restricted for many investors because of its complexity, cost, and long-term benefits that often don't fit the planned investment horizon.
…a great chance
Scaling up portfolio companies internationally not only creates additional revenue. There is also an exit premium on companies that show successful international market coverage.
We scale the potential of portfolio companies
for VC and PE investors in the center of Europe.
