LIGHTING

Even if people often only perceive it subconsciously, lighting is omnipresent in everyday life and the necessary solutions are as diverse as the companies active in the industry. Through the fundamental transformation from conventional lighting to efficient LED, the industry has experienced a paradigm shift in the last decade that continues to have an impact today.

At the same time, the still highly fragmented industry with many small niche providers must face the challenges of global competition and increasing customer demands. M&A, the buying and selling of companies, is now an integral part of strategic considerations by company owners in the industry.

Aquin has developed into the leading M&A advisory firm in the European lighting industry through a large number of supported lighting transactions (16 to date) and has an industry expertise in this area like no other transaction advisor. Thanks to our lively network with decision-makers in the industry and investors with an affinity for lighting, as well as our deep understanding of the business models and core values of lighting companies, we can optimally represent our clients in the M&A process.
