    Cross-Border Sourcing

    On-the-ground sourcing across Europe

    We source acquisition targets directly in the owner's language and market. Our European roots give us relationships and local presence in the DACH region and broader Europe that a US-only search firm cannot replicate.

    Proprietary AI screening runs thousands of European companies against your buy-box, surfacing off-market targets that never appear on broker platforms. The senior advisor qualifies each one before it reaches your desk.

    Local-Language Outreach

    We approach owners in German, French, or Dutch — whichever opens the door. That gets conversations started that an English-only outreach never would.

    Off-Market Pipeline

    AI-assisted screening identifies targets that match your buy-box before they reach a broker. You see qualified opportunities, not a recycled deal list.

    Pre-Valued Targets

    Every target comes with an indicative valuation range so you can prioritize quickly and focus diligence where the return profile fits.

    Common Questions

    Cross-border acquisitions raise questions that domestic deals do not. Below are the ones buyers ask most before starting a mandate.

    We combine direct owner outreach in the owner's language with AI-assisted screening that runs thousands of European companies against your buy-box. The technology widens the pool beyond any personal network. The senior advisor runs the conversations and holds the relationships.

    Mandates pair a monthly retainer with a success fee at close. The retainer is credited against the success fee, so it is an advance, not an extra cost. Exact terms depend on the scope and intensity of the search.

    Plan for longer than a domestic deal. Sourcing, local diligence, translation, and time-zone coordination add weeks to months. A durable pipeline needs a steady inflow of new qualified targets each month, with deals closing every few quarters.

    Yes. Deal structure, tax, FDI screening, and employee transfer rules vary by country. We flag the cross-border questions each structure raises so you can bring the right local counsel and tax advisor in early.

    Yes. Buy-side mandates are usually non-exclusive and scoped by sector or geography, so you can run an advisor alongside your own channels and other sourcing efforts.
