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.

By your side throughout the entire process

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.
