Developed investment criteria for digital M&A activities and identified relevant acquisition targets in selected market segments, incl. the US market
We are passionate about disruptive digital business models and about the companies that develop them and bring them to market. We serve „legacy“ and „new“ companies in developing, reviewing and implementing their growth strategies and transformation agendas.
We support our clients along the entire process, starting with a diagnosis of the strategic challenges all the way to anchoring change within the organization. Our client service is rooted in three core values: highest professionalism, confidentiality and results orientation.
Contact usMany industries are currently experiencing fundamental change. New digital devices, new user expectations, new habits and preferences are emerging. What this means: (almost) nothing remains as before, (almost) everything needs to be questioned and reinvented.
In this challenging context, we help our clients develop clear strategies and agendas, both in further developing their core business and in diversifying via M&A. Our support is grounded in a broad project experience in many segments of the media and travel industries, as well as in many years of closely following trends in international reference markets, especially the US.
Even the clearest strategy can fall flat without adequate support within the organization. A highly refined action plan can fail if it meets with ineffective processes during the implementation phase. That is why organizational development is one of our focus areas. In supporting our clients, we give special priority to jointly developing recommendations and project results together with the project team and the relevant stakeholders.
We have broad project experience in supporting complex processes – e.g. post-merger integration and multi-year transformation programs – in smaller and larger organizations, as well as in improving business processes and ways of working.
