About Us

Since 1999, we have been supporting the development of small and medium-sized enterprises with strong growth potential but limited financial resources.

We follow clear investment criteria. We use capital of reputable institutional investors to add value to growing businesses. Since our company’s foundation, we have advised five funds with a total size of over 300 million euros.

As private equity firm, we provide access to resources and capital to finance acquisitions and enable companies to grow.

We seek out investment opportunities in dynamic companies with high growth potential operating in the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Poland, Hungary and Austria.

We assist in increasing the value of capital of the Genesis Funds’ investors – leading international financial institutions.

Since our foundation in 1999, we have worked on five private equity funds with a cumulative size of over 300 million euros, or over 7 billion Czech crowns.

We have supported the growth and development of over 60 companies, covering a range of diverse sectors and businesses. Many of the supported companies became the business leaders in their respective
