Software / Tech-enabled Services
Software is at the centre of every digitalisation agenda and increasingly the layer through which AI reaches the end user. Tech-enabled services deliver and run that software - and turn technology into a measurable productivity uplift, often in traditionally people-intensive businesses. Both benefit from recurring revenue, high switching costs and scalable delivery models.
In software we invest in enterprise and vertical applications that own a defensible niche - typically mission-critical systems embedded in a customer's daily workflow. Tech-enabled services span two groups: specialised providers around the software ecosystem - from implementation and hosting to field service management and cybersecurity - and people-intensive service businesses whose output rises sharply once technology is embedded in delivery.

Industrial Tech
Automation, electrification and energy efficiency are reshaping industrial value chains, while persistent labour shortages accelerate the shift. We look for niche leaders whose technology is hard to replace.
We invest in automation and robotics, smart infrastructure and critical industrial components, as well as in industrial software and precision manufacturing for high-end applications - typically with an installed base that generates recurring service and consumables revenue.
-
Healthcare
Healthcare demand is essential, regulated and supported by demographics. Certification, approvals and intellectual property create high barriers to entry, and consumables add a recurring revenue layer.
We invest in healthcare services with clear consolidation and professionalisation potential, and in MedTech and healthcare IT where proprietary technology and regulatory approval build a durable competitive position.
Strategy
Our mission is to form vertical leaders in markets benefiting from secular mega trends. The businesses we invest in combine an inherent growth gene with proven business models and predictable revenue streams.
Prerequisites for accelerated growth are an elaborated strategy, strong teams, and scalable processes. We support leadership teams with our expertise, capital, and our network.

GrowthGrowth
Growth is created inside the business, first and foremost organically. Typical measures across our portfolio include sharpening the sales model, enhancing sales capacity, widening the product and service offering, and refining the pricing strategy. Buy-and-build is never a prerequisite, but it is a discipline we know well: we have completed more than 50 add-ons and successions over the past three years.

Operational ExcellenceOperational Excellence
Profitability is where operational work becomes visible. We bring best practices and act as a sparring partner across digitalisation, automation of core processes, KPI orientation and HR strategy - and help build the structures needed to scale.

PositioningPositioning
The strategic position and profile of a company enhance its lasting value. Across our portfolio we have supported measures that sharpen exactly this profile: multiple international expansions, including entries into the US market, as well as transformations of the revenue model - for example the shift from licence-based sales to recurring SaaS.
