M&A ADVISORY – BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES IN SWITZERLAND AND ABroad

Acquire a business to accelerate growth. Find the right buyer, at the right time, under the right conditions.

Turning Transitions into Strategic Drivers

These decisions come up only a few times in a leader’s career—and there is no room for error.

At thinkGo, we support entrepreneurs, companies, corporate groups, investors, family offices, and investment funds at every stage of these transactions—both in Switzerland and internationally—for deals ranging from CHF 3 million to CHF 150 million, with the rigor and dedication they require.

Our expertise at your service

Every transaction is unique. Our role is to understand your goals—financial, personal, and estate-related—and work with you to develop the strategy best suited to achieving them.

We are involved in the entire process:

  • identify the solution that best fits your situation;
  • identify and evaluate counterparties—target companies, acquirers, or investors;
  • mobilize our network in Switzerland and internationally;
  • coordinate specialized advisors—attorneys, trustees, tax specialists;
  • structure the transaction and guide you through the process until its completion.

Acquiring a Business: Growing with Consistency and Vision

Acquisitions are one of the most powerful ways to accelerate growth—provided they are well-prepared, well-targeted, and well-executed.

We support buyers from the development of their strategy through to the completion of the transaction: identifying targets, including those not on the market; conducting confidential approaches; coordinating financial and legal due diligence; and negotiating and arranging financing.

Our goal is simple: to maximize value creation at every stage and ensure an integration that delivers on its promises over the long term.

Selling a Business: Planning Ahead, Structuring the Sale, and Handing Over the Reins

Selling a business is often the culmination of a lifetime of work or a strategic move. It is also a decision that involves much more than just numbers: the future of the teams, the long-term viability of a project, and proper recognition of a career.

This stage deserves preparation that is commensurate with its significance.

Working with the sellers, we clarify the objectives, accurately assess the value of the business, and then identify and select the most suitable buyers—industrial buyers, financial investors, or individual buyers—before conducting negotiations in a confidential and secure environment.

Because we advise industrial and financial buyers on a daily basis, we know what they’re looking for—and how to present your company to capture their attention.

We remain involved until the signing and the actual transfer, ensuring that the transition is as smooth as possible for all parties.
