AETERNUM HOLDING

"Building lasting brands in the jewelry category with a long-term perspective" AETERNUM HOLDING is the group within an established German FAMILY FUND, which is entirely focused on acquisitions of and investments in jewellery companies in the premium and luxury space. The name “Aeternum” (latin: forever, eternally) expresses the orientation of our group to build lasting brands in the jewelry category with a long-term perspective. We understand the challenges small to medium sized companies face in a fast-changing market environment. These include the shift to digital in all business areas, pressured brick-and-mortar retailers, omni-channel consumer orientation and changing consumer behavior (e.g. Millenials), effective use of social media and influencer marketing for brand building, access to international markets, optimization of business processes internally and with business partners (sourcing & go-to-market), while operating with scarce resources and limited experience in some of these areas. Aeternum has been established with the vision to work with entrepreneurs and CEOs to prepare their businesses to realize the opportunities behind those challenges and help them stand out with exceptional success. PHILOSOPHY Aeternum consists of a forum of entrepreneurs and CEOs of the platform companies it is invested in and the holding’s own resources. Each CEO guides his/her individual company with entrepreneurial and creative spirit. All contribute to the success of fellow CEOs in the group by sharing best practices and business experience. In addition, each company benefits of shared resources made available by Aeternum and the platform companies to develop core strategic topics, critical to the success of the individual company and the group. Together we enhance the value of each company and grow the business. We are looking for companies headquartered in Europe with revenues of 5-30 m€, positive EBITDA and growth potential.
