EquiLiant Capital invests in Romanian entrepreneurial SMEs that have high growth potential in Romania and/or foreign markets. We look for companies that have the potential to challenge the status quo and become tomorrow’s champions in their industry.

We are generalist investors, without a preference for specific sectors. We are interested in high growth companies and invest c. EUR 3-10m over a horizon of 3-7 years. We prefer minority investments and generally don’t interfere with day-to-day operations, which must remain the responsibility of the founder and management team. A healthy company culture, ambitious growth plans and downside resilience are among some of the basic criteria we follow when assessing investment opportunities.

We can leverage, for the benefit of the companies we invest in, ample resources, experience, and skills. Aside from the capital we deploy, we can help our portfolio companies grow in various ways such as through bolt-on acquisitions, strengthening management teams or optimising financing structures.

Our team members have broad experience in Romania and in some of the world’s major financial centers.
