Numerous profitable companies in the German Mittelstand are seeking succession. For experienced executives, private equity professionals, and members of entrepreneurial families, this is not a threat \u2014 but a strategic opportunity.<\/p>\n

In the interview, Dr. Nikita Gontschar explains why acquiring an established company is, in many cases, the more rational path to self-employment: lower operational risk, functioning structures, existing customer relationships. And why the success of such a transaction depends not solely on capital, but on a clear strategic vision \u2014 and a transaction structure that keeps buyer and seller interests in balance not only until closing, but over the long term.
