About Us
Driving growth together
Our team is spread across the globe to ensure ample coverage of our markets of interest as well as providing a diverse range of expertise in different areas. Once we proceed with the acquisition of a company in a certain region, we draw on our network of operators for supporting the company in its management and continuous growth.
Our Vision
to acquire, hold and grow great SME companies, ensuring their legacy lives on for generations to come.
Approximately 4.8 trillion USD of net worth, will be transferred to the next generation in the coming 20 years globally, as owner-operators of family-owned SME Companies retire.
​
As many of these business fall outside the scope of traditional private equity and strategic buyers and as the owners might prefer not to sell to Private Equity or large corporates given that they may not adequately maintain the company’s legacy, there is a void in the market as great SME companies struggle to find a meaningful succession plan. This is where Legacy Bridge Holdings come in. ​
​
Our Vision is to acquire, hold and grow great SME companies and ensuring their legacy lives on for generations to come.
​
This not only secured the future legacy of the company but also supports local communities and preserves economic activity as SMEs contribute about 70% of GDP for most countries around the world.
​
While this may seem like a unique and daunting challenge, however this type of investment vehicle has been tried and tested extensively since the 1990s and has shown great success both for investors and for companies being acquired.
