Advisory sell-side

We advise on divestures of non-core corporate activities and the selling of businesses for corporate clients, private equity firms, and family businesses. Since every sale activity is unique, we tailor our transaction strategies specifically to meet our client’s needs, from discreet private processes to public auctions. A strong network is imperative for any strategic transaction. Athena Equity works with financial sponsors and strategic buyers worldwide to make sure our clients are able to find the best match for their goals. We provide committed transaction support from senior management who leverage their network and expertise to obtain the optimal price for every client.

Athena Equity provides guidance on strategy, acquisition and execution. On the buy-side, we coordinate organic and sustainable growth policies to be implemented via acquisitions for corporate clients, portfolio firms or private equity clients, to enable companies to continue to prosper long after negotiations have concluded.

With partners in every major economy, we have the ability and connections to approach local targets and determine interest.
