We’re always looking for Entrepreneurs Through Acquisition (’ETA’): motivated, ambitious and talented mid-career professionals and/or entrepreneurs ready to take the next big career step - without building the company from scratch.
About Us
It all starts with a huge problem SMBs are facing.
As the overall age of the western population increases, micro and small businesses are struggling with succession planning. Retiring owners often don’t have relatives to pass on their small family business to and exit opportunities to third-parties of employees are rare. Consequently, the majority of them are shutting down endangering millions of jobs.
In Italy, our first geography of interest, nearly 80%, meaning 4 out of 5 companies below €10M in revenue, will shut down because of a loss of continuity. We’re talking about a huge know-how that won’t be transferred and tens of thousands of employees that will be sent home.
This is why ate’re building a tech platform which:
- Acquires these small businesses whose founders are retiring
- Gives the majority of the shares back to the employees
- Supports these companies in creating a bridge to a solid and scalable future
A few insights about the companies we're targeting:
- Up to €5M in revenue;
- 10%+ Ebitda margin;
- B2b, services and manufacturing;
- Based in Italy;
- Owner looking for retirement;
- No consumer, distressed companies or turnarounds.
