Giacomo Sepe

Company Manager who helps B2B technology powered companies generate value with positioning and messaging for capital raising, strategic partnerships, automations, and development of digital products. I transform traditional B2B service and light manufacturing companies into valuable, technology powered businesses that PE funds and strategic buyers want to acquire.

Since my MBA at Columbia in 2003, I've worked with owners of traditional businesses who want modern organizations but don't have the expertise, time, or resources to do it themselves and helped them find partners or sell their companies successfully. I support investors like Private equity funds when they want to raise capital or want to generate value from their portfolio without using internal portfolio managers.

I typically work with companies at €2-15M in revenue, with a 2-3 year focus on making them ready for a PE fund or trade buyer investment. I support capital raising and exit negotiations. Based in Italy. Working internationally. Native Italian, fluent French and Spanish.

I am successful when my work results in higher exit value for shareholders or lower use of internal resources in capital raising processes.

I have seen all sides of the private capital investment chain, starting from LP investment (Merrill Lynch, UBS), GP investment (Hines, EQValue), Portfolio operations management (EQValue, IPE Holding) and interim CFO / COO at founder-led companies (Simmetrico, Chamilia, Cotolicious, and several more).
