Frequently asked questions

Who runs investment decisions at GAP Technology Holding?

Dr. Sven T. Siefken is the Managing Director and primary investment decision-maker. He spent over 20 years at McKinsey & Company, where he was a senior partner leading the global semiconductor and high-tech practices, advising semiconductor, electronics, and industrial-technology clients on strategy and operations. Peter Greuter serves as CFO.

Does GAP Technology Holding raise external funds or deploy proprietary capital?

GAP does not publicly market fund vehicles or disclose limited partners, which strongly suggests it deploys proprietary or single-family capital rather than pooled third-party commitments. This structure frees the firm from fixed-liquidation timelines and allows longer holding periods than a typical 10-year closed-end fund.

What investment stages does GAP Technology Holding typically target?

The firm invests across early-stage venture, growth equity, and complex situations including carve-outs and restructurings. Its stage flexibility is unusual for a European manager and reflects the permanent-capital structure, which does not force exits on any calendar.

How does GAP Technology Holding source proprietary deal flow?

Sourcing runs through Dr. Siefken's multi-decade network across the European semiconductor and industrial-technology ecosystem, including board-level relationships at companies like Siltronic and ASM International. The firm's operating partner network — with former executives from Infineon, Siemens, and Zeiss — provides additional origination into deals that rarely reach broad auction processes.

What is GAP Technology Holding's known posture on co-investments alongside external GPs?

GAP has not publicly disclosed a formal co-investment program. Given its proprietary-capital structure and check-size capacity up to €100 million, the firm is capable of leading or wholly underwriting transactions rather than participating as a minority co-investor alongside external general partners.
