Jonas invests in software that customers love
We’re different from most strategic investors: our approach is to buy and hold forever; to get solidly behind your business and invest in your brilliance.
We love to learn everything about your brand, solutions, processes, employees and ambitions so we can work with you to drive growth and success.
Making every step quick, simple and hassle-free
Selling your business can be an emotional time. You’ve invested blood, sweat, tears and money - as well as years of your life - in developing your software, supporting your team and building your customer base. But choosing to sell, and who to, might be your biggest decision yet.
We get it. Many of our senior team members also sold their companies to the Jonas Group and are still with us today. Knowing what it’s like to sit on your side of the table, we make the process as straightforward and friendly as possible, guiding you through every stage and sharing our experience from hundreds of acquisitions worldwide.
Buying into your vision: Jonas Europe’s M&A Team
Jonas Europe’s dedicated M&A team seeks out, identifies, and builds lasting relationships with exceptional software companies across industry verticals. We support vendors through every stage of the acquisition process, from initial outreach to valuation and completion, ensuring a smooth and transparent journey.
Understanding your priorities as a stakeholder
Business owner
Your employees and customers are your number one priority. That’s why we maintain standalone brands and management teams, to continue the legacy you started.
Corporate
Non-core activities can be a distraction. We are adept at completing fast, straightforward transactions to give them the focus and funding to thrive as businesses in their own right.
M&A advisors
Whether a broker, advisor, accountant or lawyer, you’ll have the best interests of your client at heart. Every aspect of the deal will be guided by our values of fairness and transparency.
Broker
Simplifying and smoothing the process of finding the most suitable home for your client.
Accountant
Making it easy for you to assess the benefits and options if your client’s business is acquired.
Legal Advisor
A change of ownership carries many implications for your clients and their business. We’ll openly engage in constructive dialogue around all possible.
“If your goal for your business is to be a market leader in the vertical it serves – and to have a great home for your customers and employees you’ve built up over time – we are the right place for it, because that is our strategy.”

Global CEO, Jonas Software
