Perpetua Holding

Perpetua explicitly structures its investments without a predetermined exit timeline. The firm was founded to provide permanent equity, distinguishing itself from traditional private equity funds that typically target three-to-five-year holds. This indefinite-horizon model is designed to support long-term growth strategies, succession transitions, and corporate carve-outs where a forced liquidity event would be counterproductive.

Perpetua invests across buyouts, succession-driven acquisitions, growth financings, corporate spin-offs, and partial divestitures. The firm acquires both majority and significant minority stakes, with equity tickets ranging from €10 million to €50 million per platform investment, and it can deploy smaller amounts for add-on acquisitions that complement existing portfolio companies.

Perpetua invests capital from international investors who themselves have multi-generational entrepreneurial backgrounds. The firm does not publicly name its limited partners, but its website describes the investor base as aligned with the indefinite-hold structure—families and individuals who understand long-term business building rather than fund-cycle dynamics.

Perpetua focuses on companies headquartered in Europe, with an emphasis on the German-speaking region. Its portfolio businesses operate globally, with disclosed operational footprints spanning continental Europe, the United Kingdom, Turkey, Asia, Africa, and the United States.

Perpetua Holding is a private equity firm, not a single-family office. However, its permanent-capital structure and indefinite hold periods give it an operational posture closer to a family-backed holding company than a conventional closed-end fund. It raises capital from multiple external investors, not a single family balance sheet.

Perpetua seeks established, profitable companies with revenue exceeding €25 million. Its equity investments range from €10 million to €50 million per platform deal, which typically corresponds to significant minority or majority positions in founder-owned, family-held, or corporate- carve-out situations.

Perpetua Holding invests directly into operating companies and does not operate as a fund-of-funds or allocate to third-party private equity funds. Its disclosed activity consists entirely of direct equity investments in privately held businesses across Europe.
