Investing in the growth of French and Italian SMEs

Since 2003, we have been investing in companies with a value between 20 and 120 million euros. As a local investor, our objective is to accelerate their growth by combining international expansion, strategic acquisitions and organisational structuring.

We particularly support family-owned companies in transition, providing them with a dedicated operational team and privileged access to our network. Thanks to our open sector approach and our presence in France and Italy through our subsidiary Polis SGR, we identify unique opportunities in attractive niche markets.
Our ESG commitment is at the heart of our strategy, supporting the sustainable transformation of our portfolio companies.
