Business Model

We start building with an idea in mind, not a deal at hand.

Every GREENPEAK platform follows the same three phases. Develop turns an idea into a plan. Buy turns a plan into a business. Build turns a business into a market leader.

OUR BUSINESS MODEL

Develop

We focus on generating and testing ideas by brainstorming innovative concepts and rigorously testing them to ensure alignment with market needs and trends. This process helps us identify and refine the most promising ideas for further development.

BUY

We seek firms that bring the right leadership capabilities, create synergies with the rest of the group, and deliver performance that strengthens it.

BUILD

We lay the foundation for our platform by developing the technical architecture and core functionalities. Our focus is on creating a world-class management structure and robust, scalable, and future-ready operations that meet our strategic goals and support long-term growth.

Develop.

The groundwork comes before the growth.

Every platform starts with real preparation: a conviction-led thesis we believe in, brilliant people to lead it, and a plan already in place long before a deal is done.

DEFINE THE THEME

We start with conviction in the theme, pursue proprietary opportunities, and align incentives for the entire journey. We focus on platforms shaped by long-term megatrends such as Longevity, Innovation, Greening, and areas where we have particular expertise.

SOURCE GREAT LEADERS

Through our own sourcing network, we find the leaders who can take a platform from thesis to market leadership.

DRAFT THE PLAN

Every platform starts with a proven operating system, shared KPIs, and a peer network to learn from.

Investment criteria

Niche players with market leader potential

We seek businesses operating in specialized markets with the potential to become industry leaders. These businesses typically offer unique products or services that differentiate them from competitors.

Profitable revenue between €5 and €50 million

Our focus is on profitable businesses with revenue in the range of €5 million to €50 million. This range indicates a stable revenue base and the potential for scalable growth and expansion.

Strong management team

A capable and experienced management team is crucial for success. We look for leaders with a proven track record, strategic vision, and the ability to drive growth and innovation within their industry.

DACH at the core, Europe at scale

We primarily invest in companies based in the DACH region and support them as they grow across Europe. This focus leverages our deep understanding of these markets and allows us to provide targeted support and expertise.

Buy.
To get the right results, we build on the right fit.

Every acquisition has to earn its place: a business that fits our thesis, a price that reflects real value, and terms that work for everyone at the table.

thesis before numbers

We focus on generating and testing ideas by brainstorming innovative concepts and rigorously testing them to ensure alignment with market needs and trends. This process helps us identify and refine the most promising ideas for further development.

A fair price built on trust

A clear platform vision and a proven playbook create alignment from day one.

financial alignment

Incentives are structured so that management, founders, and GREENPEAK all win together.

We don’t just invest in ideas. Together with our business leaders, we build platforms that drive future change. Our differentiator is providing unparalleled support, guiding through every step of the process.

Build. Working as one.

IDENTIFY SYNERGIES

Complementary capabilities across value creation, M&A, AI and IT, marketing, recruiting, and finance are pooled under one house.

ONE SHARED CULTURE

Trust, accountability, and entrepreneurial ambition form the common ground, giving every leader the freedom to run their business while sharing one culture.

INTEGRATION

One operating system, shared KPIs, and peer learning among leaders turn separate acquisitions into a single, stronger organization.
