Investment thesis
Amakor pursues opportunities identified through its own research, primarily via mid-market private equity and growth equity investments. In private equity, it proactively originates exclusive deals, favoring buy-and-build roll-up strategies in highly fragmented industries and the European mid-market, while avoiding high-CapEx and marketing-led verticals. In growth equity, it backs industry-leading companies at the forefront of major trends, targeting businesses with revenue of $50 million or more, high gross margins, and a clear path to profitability, while avoiding binary-risk sectors like biotech, high-CapEx, and hardware-led businesses. Investments range from $25 million to $200 million, with both majority and minority positions.
