The Castella Nova Purpose
We support experienced managers as company successors in the development of new market leaders.
The Platform
We provide support in strategy, M&A, finance, human resources, the process of composing a company's board, identification of growth drivers, as well as in all phases of a company's development, from founding to scaling to the sale of shares.
The Ecosystem
The Castella Nova ecosystem draws strength from a consolidated network of experts. With the integration of each portfolio company, this expertise grows proportionally, and the core of the fortress strengthens from within. Castella Nova is the active union of forces and potentials in the development of people and the sustained strengthening of companies.
The Fortress
To ensure long-term developments, we strive to constantly develop our network organically and to activate new relationships. The targeted support of entrepreneurs in the Castella Nova Academy acts as an amplifier for the independent buildup of a new company group with the tailwind of a scale-up ecosystem and a secure platform to start. Being embedded in an operational new group creates safety for our portfolio companies and provides the momentum they need to build their business in a forward-looking way.
Our approach to each relationship within our ecosystem is based on partnership, the importance of people and their individual talents and vision to the success of the business, as well as prioritizing sustainable developments of that success. Because we believe that every success and every leader, as a monumental part of our ecosystem, strengthens the ecosystem itself. Expertise on both sides is thus crucial for the sustainable success and the steadfastness of the fortress.

From the idea to the AG - the Castella Nova portfolio
As a buy-and-build incubator, Castella Nova specializes in business succession.
We focus on three areas that we have selected.
All three areas are so-called megatrends, which prove their future viability and market opportunities through a long-lasting and system-changing development with partly global characteristics!
We are focused on:
- Digitization
- Demographic change
- Climate change
From the first idea, we have a market analysis made after several expert interviews before we found the AG with 4 supervisory board members. As initiator and co-founder, Castella Nova starts searching for the right board duo for the respective new AG of our portfolio at this point at the latest.
