Our Positioning
CAPVIA is an independent corporate finance advisory firm focused on efficient and professional M&A execution for small and mid-cap companies across the DACH region. We leverage a wide network of financial and strategic investors, together with proprietary access to a large number of attractive companies, backed by deep industry expertise and hands-on leadership across the full transaction lifecycle, from exit readiness, to high-quality transaction documentation, due diligence coordination and negotiation support. With structured processes and proactive stakeholder management, we reduce friction, avoid preventable conflicts and deliver reliable outcomes from preparation to closing.
The Pragmatic Approach
We apply a pragmatic, execution-driven approach to corporate finance and transactions. By combining modern tools, lean processes and flexible working models, we reduce complexity and friction throughout the transaction lifecycle, from structuring to closing. The focus is on clarity, speed and disciplined execution rather than theoretical frameworks.
Committed to Success
We engage selectively and take full responsibility for the outcome of each transaction. Our interests are aligned with those of our clients, and we focus on achieving feasible, well-structured results rather than maximizing process volume. Every engagement is managed with a clear end goal and long-term alignment in mind.
Leveraging new technologies
New technologies and artificial intelligence (AI) are transforming modern work, and corporate finance and M&A are no exception. We apply these developments where they create tangible value in sourcing, analysis and transaction execution.
Based on a strong network
We recognize the importance of a strong network within the investment community. Over time, we have built extensive relationships with private equity, family offices, strategic investors and growth funds, as well as the Swiss and broader European corporate finance community. This access enables focused access to relevant financing sources and strategic counterparts.
