Investment Thesis

Upliift believes in long-term, permanent equity partnership with European B2B software companies rather than traditional private equity flipping. They focus on backing ‘Europe’s hidden software champions’ - mission-critical businesses in niche markets where deep expertise matters. Their approach emphasizes building lasting value through sustainable growth while preserving founder identity, company culture, and team integrity.

What Sets Them Apart

  • Only European software investor offering founders flexibility to take money off the table now, stay involved, and share in future success
  • Permanent equity model - buy and hold forever, unlike conventional private equity that flips businesses
  • Unique combination of full exits, partial exits, and founder retention options
  • European-focused with deep cultural understanding - 'We speak your language and understand how you work. We don't impose American-style practices'
  • Deep software industry expertise spanning M&A, GTM, sales, pricing, finance, and operations
  • Shareholders aligned with long-term value creation and purpose-led investing
  • Founder-centric approach that preserves business identity and culture
