Executive Capital is a Danish brand that was established in 2007 with the aim of providing Danish SMEs (small and medium-sized enterprises) with what they refer to as Competent Capital. They invest their own funds in companies with an annual turnover ranging between 2. 5 and 35 million Euros.

Executive Capital primarily focuses on companies headquartered in Denmark, although they may invest in other countries under special circumstances. Their investment strategy centers around companies with established organizations and management, with a particular emphasis on growth potential. They invest in companies facing generational changes, those in need of sales preparation, and growth companies that require both capital and expertise to elevate their business to the next level.

Executive Capital operates as an investment partnership composed of experienced business professionals who bring their own resources and competencies to develop and refine small and medium-sized Danish companies. They invest as active minority shareholders, typically holding a 35% to 49% stake, in collaboration with other active minority owners. They believe in fostering a well-considered composition of owners with mutual respect and trust in order to facilitate the best conditions for a company's growth and development.

Executive Capital collaborates closely with the management of the invested companies, focusing on organizational development, scaling the business model, internationalization, and reducing dependence on key individuals. They assist in prioritizing and implementing strategic and operational improvements, while also providing access to their extensive network. Executive Capital prioritizes real value creation over immediate financial gains and takes a patient approach to ownership, without imposing a strict timeline for exit.

With their team's substantial transaction experience from the consulting industry, they offer expert coordination and advice throughout the investment process. If you are considering active investments in Danish SMEs or would like to learn more about Executive Capital, feel free to reach out to them
