Core Areas of Focus
Margin Expansion
We identify and unlock efficiency levers through operational benchmarking, cost structure reviews, and working capital optimisation.
Bolt-on Execution
We work closely with management to identify, assess, and integrate bolt-on acquisitions that strengthen strategic positioning and accelerate growth. Our sector mapping efforts provide a unique vantage point—giving us visibility into adjacent targets, emerging players, and under-the-radar opportunities long before they come to market. We leverage this insight to guide acquisition strategy, facilitate introductions, and support integration planning from early stages through to execution.
Strategic Hiring & Governance
We support management in strengthening leadership teams, professionalising board oversight, and aligning incentives to long-term goals.
Commercial Acceleration
We work with companies to refine go-to-market strategies, pricing, and customer segmentation—enhancing both revenue quality and scale potential. Leveraging our operational experience and international reach, we help open doors to new markets, strategic partnerships, and customer segments that accelerate commercial momentum.
Market Expansion & Strategic Positioning
We support portfolio companies in identifying and executing cross-border growth opportunities—leveraging our regional insight to help them access new markets, expand distribution, or reposition globally. Where relevant, we also assist in evaluating opportunities for vertical or horizontal integration to strengthen their competitive edge.
Value Creation From the Start
Each investment begins with a detailed 100- and 200-day roadmap aligned with management. This ensures shared accountability, measurable milestones, and early traction on value creation initiatives.
We stay close to our companies—providing support without interference—and work in partnership with founders and executives to drive sustainable results.
Flexible Support Infrastructure
We retain a pool of operational specialists—including finance professionals, analysts, and project support—who can engage directly with portfolio companies and management teams as needed. This flexible resource pool allows us to support companies in bridging short-term needs, managing peak workloads, and accelerating workstreams around key milestones.
We also make this support available during deal preparation. For companies we are actively engaged with, this can reduce the operational burden of data room preparation, document review, and diligence coordination—ensuring management stays focused on running the business.
This support team operates flexibly across our geographies and can be deployed as needed—offering targeted assistance without disrupting internal workflows.
At AIV Capital, value creation is embedded from the outset. We don’t invest unless we believe there is a clear, actionable path to building long-term value—commercially, operationally, and strategically.
Our approach is grounded in structured frameworks that guide transformation from day one. These frameworks are shaped by decades of experience across private equity and venture, and refined to suit the dynamics of each sector we operate in.
