A letter from our Managing Partner

Countless deals. And a clear sight of who we work for.

Ten years ago, Venero Capital Advisors was founded on a simple principle: stand firmly on the side of founders. We work exclusively on the sell-side, so we never represent the buyer and our advice is never conflicted. The senior people who win a mandate are the people who run it, from the first conversation to completion.

Every tombstone on our wall represents a founder at a defining moment: a growth equity raise, a debt financing, a spin-out, or the sale of a company they spent years building. Each of those milestones matters to us as much as it does to the founders who achieved them.

Sector expertise, built deal by deal

We know who the buyers and investors are, and what they value.

Deep sector knowledge is not claimed. It is built, one transaction at a time. Over ten years, we have advised founders across a broad range of sectors, and in each one we have built lasting relationships with the strategic acquirers, private equity firms and growth investors who shape it.

That depth means we understand how buyers and investors value a business in your market, which metrics they focus on and what makes them compete. We use that insight to position each company so the right partners see its full potential, and to run processes that create genuine competitive tension.

Cross-border M&A

Borders are just lines.

For many of the founders we advise, the best partner is not in their own country. Woffu in Spain joined Visma of Norway. Apli in Mexico joined iCIMS in the United States. Workmate in Singapore joined PERSOL of Japan.
