trust, reliability and teamwork. We have an  extensive Partner network sharing our values. 

With all our experience in digital companies, it is rare to see investors who discuss code with owners, who fully grasp what owning a company means and who diligently develop their companies in size, geographies and markets. That is what BID is to company owners.

How does this work?

We invest in software companies – and only software companies. We walk the talk and we are software guys. So, whenever you feel that your clients need to talk to computer scientists rather than bankers to discuss the company's future, we are here for you. We are happy to explore with you whether M&A in general and BID Equity in particular can be a value-add for your client’s software business.

Exploratory Meeting

Please ping us if you know of a situation where we can help.

Staking your claim

We like to work with M&A advisors and understand your value-add. Please contact us early in the process to help you set the scene and to ensure the formal foundation of our collaboration.

Meeting your client

We understand software businesses and your clients will see that quickly. In the past we have often helped to showcase that specialized financial investors can be a more attractive option than other buyers.
