It has probably been our busiest summer ever: We opened our second office in Austria, closed two new transactions, built out our industrial advisory board and, last but not least, are RE-BRANDING FROM CO-INVESTMENT PARTNERS TO YANA INVESTMENT PARTNERS! * Co-Investment Partners becomes Yana Investment Partners! * Build-out of our Industrial Advisory Board * Opening of our second office in Austria * Investments in Real Good Dental and MT Helmets CIP BECOMES “YANA INVESTMENT PARTNERS” After successfully investing in nine European small-cap companies with a differentiated and innovative strategy, we re-brand to YANA INVESTMENT PARTNERS. Under our new brand, we will continue the same successful investment strategy that we have applied over the last years: We source and execute investment opportunities in outstanding, privately held European small-cap companies by partnering with our local deal partners. Our deal partners are experienced teams of veteran private equity deal doers, operators, and entrepreneurs, typically with decades of sector or country expertise. Together with our investors and deal partners, we become engaged asset owners to build long-term value for all stakeholders. True “partnership” is one of our core values and it is no coincidence that the word “partners” figures prominently in our brand, website address and emails. We are looking forward to continuing the build-up of our business with your ongoing support!
