A hands-on approach, providing full transparency and ensuring confidentiality at every stage. We commit to a tailored process, driven by collaboration, consistency, and a long-term vision.
OUR CRITERIA
Lakeview Partners targets investments in high-potential companies poised for growth.
We focus on companies that have:
Exceptional products or services
We seek companies whose offerings have earned genuine customer loyalty, reflecting a proven ability to consistently deliver quality and value. Ideally, these products have the potential to compete at a global scale, and the businesses can capitalize on opportunities to serve underserved segments or successfully enter new markets.
Stable, recurring revenue and scalable business models
We focus on businesses with “sticky” revenue streams that provide predictable, stable cash flows. Such models typically showcase strong customer retention and reduced customer acquisition costs—all factors that enhance resilience and support sustainable, long-term growth.
Enduring profitability
We prioritize companies that demonstrate not only a strong business model but also a track record of solid profitability over time. By focusing on enduringly profitable operations, we seek to mitigate risk, ensure long-term value, and position ourselves for success regardless of market cycles.
OUR APPROACH
A hands-on approach, providing full transparency and ensuring confidentiality at every stage.
We commit to a tailored process, driven by collaboration, consistency, and a long-term vision. Acting quickly and decisively, we follow a structured and streamlined approach that ensures a seamless transition from initial introduction to deal completion.
From Scoping to Deal Completion
From the outset, our priority is to establish a direct relationship, ensuring clear communication and an efficient execution. We value meeting in person and having an open dialogue to learn more about each other, understand the business and explore if there is a mutual fit. Unlike traditional investment firms that may involve multiple layers of decision-making, our approach allows sellers to deal directly with the founders from the start.
The process we follow is designed to move efficiently through each phase of the transaction, from the initial introduction to finalizing the agreement. We establish a clear timeline and allocate dedicated time to each phase of the process—getting to know each other, assessing mutual compatibility, conducting due diligence, discussing preliminary valuation and deal structure, establishing terms, and finalizing the deal. By focusing on transparency and direct communication, we eliminate unnecessary complexities and foster trust, laying the foundations for a seamless and successful transition.
Our Long-Term Investment
Upon deal completion, our focus shifts to integrating into the company. We personally take active management roles and directly invest our time and energies to unlock the company’s full potential. Free from the typical constraints of short-term investors, we are committed to long-term value creation, supporting the company beyond the typical role of an investor. We look to implement strategic initiatives, including operational improvements, international expansion and digital transformation, in order to build on the company’s DNA to create a leader of tomorrow.
Sustainable Growth and Future Positioning
We focus on creating lasting value whilst honouring the company’s legacy, principles, and vision. With a long-term approach to our investment, we work to build the company through strategic initiatives and innovation. We provide the expertise, care, and dedication necessary to ensure the company evolves into the next stage in its life and that it remains competitive and optimally positioned for future success.
Your Legacy, Our Commitment.
