Promoted by Alberto Di Gennaro, Milan-based Nephos Capital has just closed its €455k fundraising and is now beginning the search for an Italian SME to acquire, valued at up to €50M, with the intention of managing it directly over the long term. He is supported by leading Italian and international investors, including Eureka! Venture, Relay Investments, Vonzeo Capital, ONEtoONE Asset Management, Moonbase Global, Evolutiq, Cabiedes Capital, Tomas Bergstrand, Spectra Investments, as well as individual investors and entrepreneurs such as Paolo Pomè, Enrico Mattiazzi, Vito Lomele, and Giovanni Toffolutti.
Alberto brings fifteen years of management experience gained in Italy and the UK at General Electric, McKinsey & Company, and Salesforce. His ambition is to apply this expertise to an Italian SME. He has previously conducted an entrepreneurial search within the SF model, gaining hands-on knowledge of the Italian entrepreneurial landscape and the SME acquisition process.
He aims to acquire a single Italian SME with revenues between €15M and €40M, solid margins, stable cash flows, and a strong competitive position in its sector. The focus is on companies with a proven track record, businesses built over time by capable entrepreneurs, that can today benefit from a structured ownership transition to continue growing.
