Our Approach
Socium works through a management buy-in approach. We purchase shares in an existing business, allowing the existing owner to exit slowly over time. Socium takes a partnership approach with its shareholders, including the incumbent owner, where it will continue to benefit from future growth and business opportunities.
Our management buy-in strategy
Acquisition
We identify promising small to medium businesses with stable and strong potential for growth. We acquire these businesses, allowing our investors and the original owners to remain equity partners while planning their future exit.
Resource Allocation
Socium provides the necessary resources, including financial capital, operational support, and access to our network, to implement the growth strategy effectively.
Exit Strategy
Once the business has reached its growth targets, we work with our shareholders to determine the best exit strategy. We aim to maximise the company’s value and ensure a smooth transition for all parties involved.
Strategic Planning
We work closely with industry experts to develop a comprehensive growth strategy. Our team thoroughly analyses the market, competition, and industry trends to identify the most effective growth opportunities.
Continuous Development
We actively lead the businesses we acquire, providing ongoing support, guidance, and expertise. We aim to help our portfolio companies achieve their full potential and drive long-term success.
