We’re quick. We’re agile. And our services are a 100% match with your requirements. As an owner-managed corporate finance boutique, that just about sums up KP Tech when it comes to M&A consulting, corporate succession and private equity consulting in Europa. What’s made us so different to other consulting companies for the past 20 years or more? For a start, we have a detailed and in-depth understanding of markets. And we use highly innovative AI technology. But also, at KP Tech only the owners or associate partners take care of your project. Personally. So nothing gets handed down the hierarchy. Nothing’s made complicated. Just like you’d expect from a close friend.

It doesn’t get more efficient, more personal or closer than this.

The closer, the more focused

The benefit to you: quick solutions.

    Listening and understanding:

    Two factors we consider central to every successful M&A project.

    You can expect the M&A process to start with us investing plenty of time. Time for you to sit down and go through things with a small number of people. Time with people who understand other people and the motivations that drive them. You’ll see no standard recipes. And we never pigeonhole. Because every business is as unique as the entrepreneurs who made it what it is today.
