What they look for
Afinum focuses on succession situations (Management Buyouts/Buy-ins) and growth capital investments. They aim to partner with successful entrepreneurs to develop uniquely positioned companies to their full potential. Their investments are strictly concentrated within four technology-driven future verticals: "Software & TMT", "Healthcare", "Industrial Technology", and "Consumer & Internet". They explicitly look for established, profitable mid-market companies in the DACH region with strong market positions, clear growth potential, and a need for succession planning or professionalization. They prefer founder-led businesses where the entrepreneur is looking for a transition partner who will preserve the company's culture and identity.
