Launching Hirschen Capital

Sun, 29 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Hirschen Capital exists to find, acquire, and operate a single outstanding small or mid-sized business in Germany’s industrial heartland. We are raising €1 million in search capital — twenty units at €50,000 each — to fund a disciplined search targeting companies in the MEITAC sectors (manufacturing, engineering, industrial technology, automation, and components) with EBITDA between €1.5 million and €5 million.

The thesis is straightforward. Germany’s Mittelstand is experiencing a once-in-a-generation succession crisis. Hundreds of thousands of profitable, well-run businesses need new ownership over the next decade, and the pipeline of qualified buyers is thin. Private equity is too large. Strategic acquirers are too slow. The founders’ children have moved on. We intend to step into that gap.
