Our Value Creation in the Mittelstand

Since 1999, Capiton has been an established partner for medium-sized companies in the DACH region. We invest in companies that are positioning themselves for the future: with capital, expertise and passion. In this way, we create new momentum and lasting value.

With Deep Market Understanding

At Capiton, investment success is the result of a deep understanding of the challenges faced by the Mittelstand. We have acquired this understanding and our expertise as a growth investor over many years of working in partnership with our portfolio companies. Together with them, we create today’s value that fuels tomorrow’s growth.

On the Way to New Possibilities

For us, investing means taking responsibility: with deep expertise and a clear view of what matters most. This is how we discover new opportunities, find ways to exploit them effectively and pursue them with courage and determination: for the sustainable success of our portfolio companies, their employees and our investors. This is the overriding ambition and incentive that unites and drives us all.

Capiton's Strengths

Decades of know- how:

Since 1999, the Capiton team has consistently led transactions to success every year. 59 investments, over 40 exits and 118 add-on investments have been successfully completed. Approximately 100 investment opportunities are analysed each year.

Dedicated advisor network:

We have developed an extensive network of advisors to identify and exploit opportunities at an early stage. As a result, our portfolio companies benefit from valuable knowledge and support in their strategic development - the basis for sustainable value creation and growth.

A powerful community:

The Capiton family is large and extends far beyond active investing. We support and promote our portfolio companies as an advisory partner, often beyond the investment period - always on an equal footing and in mutual solidarity.

Long-term committed partners:

At Capiton, we establish a team of partners for each investment. This team stays with the company throughout the investment period. This creates familiarity and a deep understanding of the specific challenges.

Committed to the Global PE Alliance

Good contacts are worth their weight in gold. Capiton has them - both nationally and internationally as a member of the Global PE Alliance. With six partner companies in Europe and Asia, the Global PE Alliance is one of the leading private equity networks. We use it for the exchange of best practices, as a know-how hub, as an opportunity incubator and as a door opener for the international expansion of our portfolio companies. The network also gives us access to international investors as well as specialists and advisors in a wide range of sectors in key foreign markets.
