Driving growth by supporting outstanding businesses

Meet our team

DAA Capital Partners is a Swiss-based private equity founded with the ambition to make a difference. We believe in creating value through long-term partnerships with talented entrepreneurs, managers and investors, and supporting them by leveraging our multidisciplinary expertise and our global network.

Investment Approach

Venture Capital

 

We invest primarily in growing companies with proven, patented technologies, within Switzerland and core-Europe.

We grow the inherent value of the investee companies in the long-term, by supporting their outstanding management teams. Together, we unlock their full potential.

We make agile and emerging technologies and sectors our first choice, rather than highly regulated or overly concentrated markets.

We are fully committed to our portfolio management and act responsibly and flexibly to close transactions. With our extensive network and experience, we are able to structure and deliver results within a reasonable timeframe.

 Real Estate

We invest in properties in Continental Europe. A unique aspect of our real estate strategy is to focus on driving net operating income. 

By rendering business spaces more efficient and optimising logistic assets, we bring efficiencies to our assets and meet our tenants’ expectations, thus conserving their occupancy over the long-term.

We maintain high tenant satisfaction by leveraging local networks around our investment properties, thus building and maintaining strong ongoing relationships.

We add value by investing in assets with potential and by bringing a strong discipline in managing cash and capital over the long-term.
