If you are a successful manager and are aiming to acquire a stake in a company, why not consider joining Enterprise Investors' and Pedersen & Partners' MBI & MBO Club
This club is the only one of its kind in Central and Eastern Europe. It focuses on the issues and challenges facing ambitious managers who are planning to become company owners through a management buyin (MBI) or management buyout (MBO), and who need to secure the necessary capital.
The club operates as an informal network of a select group of successful directors and top managers from Poland, Romania, Czech Republic, Hungary, Slovakia, Bulgaria, the Baltics and Ukraine, and is a forum for identifying opportunities, exchanging ideas, and developing contacts.
Benefits of Membership
Club meetings take place several times a year in the affiliated countries. They combine opportunities for informal networking with structured presentations that are designed to help members realize their MBI or MBO plans. By joining the club members become part of an exclusive association of high profile, influential executives. They also gain access to an extensive network of useful contacts and advisers.
Sister Clubs
Sister clubs operate in Poland, Romania, Czech Republic, Hungary, Slovakia, Bulgaria, the Baltics, Ukraine, Slovenia, Serbia and Croatia. Members in one country are entitled to participate in meetings and events organized by any of the other clubs. Thus membership effectively gives access to a network of high-profile managers across Central and Eastern Europe - an invaluable asset when working on deals in the region.
