TESTIMONIALS<\/h1><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

\u00bbAt first, we were not aware of the time and emotional strain that selling a business entails. In this context, Aquin not only managed to quickly and thoroughly understand our business model and financials, taking a lot of work off our shoulders, but also remained calm in stressful and emotionally charged situations, always providing us with a sense of security and tranquility. We experienced an M&A advisor who fought for us with conviction and was fully committed (from analyst to partner) to our interests. We thank Aquin for the excellent work and professional support.\u00ab<\/p>\n<\/div>

\u00bbFotoFinder was celebrating its 30th anniversary when one of the two founders planned to retire in 2021. Aquin helped us to reshape our family business with a broader team of shareholders and an investor in order to prepare for its promising future. The Aquin team proved to be not only masterful in all phases of the process, but also understanding of our situation as a family business and the particular corporate culture. Out of around 50 applicants, we were able to find an investor who was a great fit for our company and shared our values. Despite all the tension that such a process entails, working with Aquin has been a pleasure for all of us. For us, Aquin is therefore not just a B2B business partner, but a H2H companion, from human to human!\u00ab<\/p>\n<\/div>

Andreas Mayer, Julian Mayer, Kathrin Niemela, Rudolf Mayer & Mo Daryaie,<\/strong>
\nFotoFinder Systems GmbH<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

\u00bbAquin succeeded excellently in managing the complex M&A process with all stakeholders (including shareholders, management, customers and suppliers) and the investors. Thanks to a highly motivated team and a trusting and goal-oriented cooperation at all times, we achieved an ideal win-win result for all parties involved. With meticulousness and professional negotiating activity, Aquin made this outstanding deal possible. I would therefore like to express my sincere thanks to Aquin, also on behalf of my wife.\u00ab<\/p>\n<\/div>

\u00bbThe sale of any business in any sector, at any time can be a challenging exercise. Testimony to the Aquin team that their strong leadership and market experience, married to a collaborative and empathetic approach, facilitated another winning outcome for all stakeholders \u2013 this time mid-pandemic and entirely online. This remarkable feat can only be achieved by two outstanding teams (management + Aquin) working efficiently, effectively and in harmony as one to achieve the best possible result.\u00ab<\/p>\n<\/div>

Stuart Bain<\/strong> (CEO),
\ndesignLED Products Ltd<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

\u00bbAquin was representing the sellers, which consisted of a very large number of shareholders with different objectives. Faurecia was not represented by any M&A advisory, however, Aquin established a positive and pleasant relationship between all parties and managed to develop suitable solutions which we all could agree upon. Thank you for your decisive support when solutions and compromises were needed, which allowed for a conclusion of the transaction despite an initial potentially difficult set of circumstances.\u00ab<\/p>\n<\/div>

<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div>

\u00bbFounding a company and developing it for a lifetime is a challenge. But I didn’t realize that it demands even more to let go, and to entrust your company to new hands. This is only possible with professional, experienced consultants. But what really counts is the good feeling of being understood and being able to trust. Thank you!\u00ab<\/p>\n<\/div>

Nils Holger Moormann<\/strong> (Founder),
\nNils Holger Moormann GmbH<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

\u00bbThe cooperation and very professional handling of our transaction with the BOSSARD Group was only possible due to the target-oriented and trustful collaboration with Aquin. Without these professionals, we would not have been able to realize this project. After several prospective buyers, we together with Aquin made the right choice with BOSSARD. 100 points, and many thanks to the Aquin team.\u00ab<\/p>\n<\/div>
