Proprietary Deal Sourcing
We identify the right targets through an exclusive DACH network — data-driven, pre-qualified and discreet, long before a company appears on the open market.
Jakob & Principals · M&A Research & Advisory
M&A advisory for the mid-market. Access before the market knows it exists.
We bring entrepreneurs, investors and strategic buyers together through proprietary research, direct owner contacts and data-driven deal origination — discreet, pre-qualified and long before a process becomes public.
Who we work for
“The right process begins with the right conversation.”
New Business Line
Built on our own M&A infrastructure.
The J|P Portal is taking shape as a Deal Operating System for modern transaction processes: pipeline, investor communication, data-room coordination and process management in one structured environment.
Internally, it is our operational backbone. Over time, we are positioning it as a standalone platform for private equity, family offices and M&A teams.

Off-Market Dealflow
We create access before the market sees it.
J|P combines proprietary research, direct owner contacts and a clear investor logic. Qualified conversations take shape precisely where conventional processes often only begin months later.
For entrepreneurs, this means discreet buyer selection with no public market process. For investors, it means relevant dealflow along a defined investment thesis.
