We help businesses move forward.
Not in theory.
In operations.

When clarity is missing, structures stop holding, and execution stalls,
we step in.

Capital is a tool.
Responsibility is non-negotiable.
Results matter.

Founder to founder — with shared accountability. And, where it truly helps, capital.
We say “no” on purpose, so our “yes” carries weight.

What we do

We combine strategy, hands-on execution and — where it genuinely helps — capital. We step into operations when structure is missing. We build investability when funding becomes relevant. And we invest only where we can contribute meaningfully.

1. Operational business development

When structures don’t scale, momentum is lost, or decisions keep circling — we intervene operationally.

Sharpen positioning and priorities
Establish KPI logic and operational steering
Clarify roles, accountabilities, and decision paths
Structure go-to-market and scaling
Stay close until progress is visible

No slide strategy — a working organisation.

2. Investment readiness & scaling architecture

Capital is not the goal. It only works when the foundation holds. We make businesses investable and scalable.

Financial structure, planning and transparency
Governance and decision logic
Growth logic and scaling plan
Preparation for equity and debt

Structure first. Funding second.

3. Selective investments

When capital makes sense and we can add real value — we invest. Minority or majority stakes, co-investments, succession or growth situations.

Capital as a tool — not a purpose
Operational accountability instead of a passive seat
Long-term value creation over short-term optics

We don’t only invest money. We invest responsibility.

Mandate or investment. Strategy or scaling. The structure is secondary — the outcome isn’t.

How we work

This is not a “consulting project”. It’s entrepreneurial co-accountability — with clear diagnosis, hard prioritisation and disciplined execution.

1. Clarity before speed

We define goals, bottlenecks and leverage points. Without clarity, speed becomes noise.

2. Few priorities. Real execution.

We reduce complexity and focus on a small number of high-impact initiatives that work in day-to-day reality.

3. Operational, not ornamental

We go where it hurts: decisions, accountabilities, processes, go-to-market, steering. No theatre — progress.

4. We say “no” — so our “yes” holds

We only work where we can stand behind the mandate, professionally and personally.

5. Capital follows structure

If capital helps, we bring it — or source it through our network. If it doesn’t, we still deliver results.

6. Measurable. Transparent. Reliable.

Clear KPIs, clean routines and transparent communication. Trust is built through reliability.

In short: we build stability before we accelerate. And we stay until the impact shows up in the operation.

Investments & Mandates

Our structure is flexible — our standards are not: capital is a tool, responsibility is non-negotiable, results matter.

Selective investments

We invest where we can genuinely stand — professionally and personally — to make businesses better, not just bigger.

Smaller to mid-sized tickets, depending on situation and leverage
Minority, majority or co-investments
Evergreen or exit — aligned with the owners’ objectives
Operational accountability instead of a passive role

Mandates (without investment)

Not every situation needs capital. When a business first needs structure, clarity and execution, we take operational mandates without an equity stake.

Corporate development & execution in the business
Reorganisation, scaling, professionalisation
Building steering, routines and accountability
Preparing funding or exit — where it fits

If capital helps, we bring it. If not, we still deliver results.

Funding through our network

Where debt or additional investors make sense, we source them through our network — but only once timing, structure and context are right.

Capital structure that matches operational reality
Transparency (KPIs, reporting, planning)
Investor readiness instead of pitch theatre

Substance first. Funding second.

We start in the DACH region — and think internationally whenever it benefits the business.

Are we the right partner?

Not every situation fits us — and we won’t fit every business. Here’s the honest version.

When we work well together

You want real progress — decisions and execution, not endless discussion.
Growth is hitting structural limits: leadership, processes, or operating rhythm can’t keep up.
Capital is on the table — but you know structure comes first.
You want shared accountability: a partner who challenges, supports, and stays.
You’re open to clear analysis — even when it’s uncomfortable.

When we likely won’t fit

If it’s only about capital — without willingness to improve structure or leadership.
If a slide deck is enough — with no real execution.
If short-term optics matter more than long-term substance.
If decisions are primarily political rather than entrepreneurial.

We work selectively — not for exclusivity, but for responsibility. If you’re serious about moving the business forward, we should talk.

About us

Sphericon Invest is a small, experienced team. We work entrepreneur-to-entrepreneur — not as distant advisors, but as operational partners with shared accountability.

Experience that works in real life

We combine strategic depth with build-and-fix experience: growth, change, financing situations — and, above all, execution inside the business.

We know what it feels like when responsibility truly sits with the decision-maker.

Small team. High impact.

We are intentionally not a “full-service shop”. We work selectively and with focus — using technology and AI to analyse faster, structure cleaner and execute more efficiently.

More impact. Less friction. No show.

Values-driven, not naïve

For us, sustainability means long-term value creation, substance and resilience — decisions that still hold tomorrow.

We only invest and work where we can stand behind it 100%.
