  • Professional Summary

    We lead two complementary real estate and construction enterprises spanning Europe and the Middle East:
    Our European firm is a third-generation Italian construction company with over 50 years of history, EUR 15 million in capital, and EUR 10+ million in annual revenue. We specialise in eco-sustainable residential and industrial developments, maintaining a vertically integrated model from land acquisition through direct sales. Our reputation is built on quality craftsmanship, regulatory compliance, and long-term client relationships across Emilia-Romagna and beyond.
    Our Middle East firm was founded to bridge Italy with Dubai's dynamic real estate market. We structure club deals for qualified Italian investors seeking UAE property exposure, providing end-to-end support, including due diligence.
    Our domain expertise:
    - Real estate development and construction management.
    - Financial modelling and project feasibility analysis.
    - Cross-border investment structuring (Italy-UAE)
    - Sustainable building practices and green certifications.
    - Direct sales strategies eliminating agency dependencies.
    - Corporate governance and succession planning.
    Our track record:
    - Successfully transitioned our Italian firm through generational change in 2022.
    - Delivered multiple residential and industrial projects valued in the tens of millions.
    - Established operational presence in Dubai with an active investment pipeline.
    - Built a network of high-net-worth Italian investors for UAE opportunities.
    How can we help businesses grow:
    - Capital injection: Direct investment for qualified opportunities.
    - Operational expertise: Hands-on experience scaling construction and service businesses.
    - Market expansion: Bridge to the UAE market entry for European companies, and vice versa.
    - Strategic partnerships: Integration opportunities with my existing real estate ecosystem.
    - Governance support: Implementing professional management structures for founder-led businesses.
    We are a hands-on investor who brings operational know-how, not just capital. We seek long-term value creation through active partnership rather than passive financial returns.

    Upto 110 thousand USD
  • Investment Criteria

    We evaluate acquisition opportunities and focus on businesses that offer vertical integration potential with our existing operations in Italy and the UAE. We look for:
    1. Financial requirements:
    - Proven profitability with EBITDA margins above 20%
    - Clean financials with audit-able records.
    - Reasonable valuation multiples (typically 3-5 multiple EBITDA for service businesses)
    - No hidden liabilities or complex debt structures.
    2. Operational factors:
    - Established supplier and subcontractor relationships.
    - Documented processes that can operate independently of the founder.
    - Existing client base with recurring revenue potential.
    - Transferable licenses and permits in good standing.
    3. Strategic fit:
    - Synergies with real estate development, construction, or property services.
    - Presence in the UAE (Dubai, Abu Dhabi) or potential for expansion there.
    - Scalability through my network of Italian high-net-worth investors.
    The businesses we like:
    - Interior design and fit-out companies.
    - Property management firms.
    - Construction and contractors.
    - Real estate brokerage agencies.
    - Building materials suppliers.
    - Facility management services.
    The businesses we avoid:
    - Heavily owner-dependent operations with no transition plan.
    - Businesses requiring specialised licenses we cannot obtain.
    - Companies with significant legal disputes or regulatory issues.
    - Asset-heavy businesses with outdated equipment.
    - Ventures outside our core competency in real estate and construction.
