In-depth, validated, consolidated, and timely available.

We have conducted over 1,000 B2B market studies in the fields of automotive, manufacturing, ICT, and related industries. These range from extensive global analyses comparing different regions to ad-hoc top management briefings for discussions on partnerships or acquisitions.

What all these studies have in common is the demand for in-depth, validated, consolidated, and interpreted insights - going far beyond the scope of typical, quick-turnaround research.

This is our home turf - and our playground! By working closely with your core team, we ensure smooth communication, eliminate gaps, and avoid delays in delivery.

This approach often makes the difference. Happy to discuss!

Key Takeaways From the Private Markets Forum

Jannick Hunecke highlights the Private Markets Forum as a platform for in-depth discussions on the relationship between private equity and the German Mittelstand. The panel examined how private equity creates value through strategic investments and collaboration, the opportunities in succession planning and digital transformation within the Mittelstand, and the resilience of the small- and mid-cap segment, which continues to deliver attractive returns despite market challenges.

The insights underscore the critical role of private equity in driving innovation and strengthening Germany’s economic backbone.
