For many years the family behind Longvere and the people who work with us have helped founders find the right approach when trying to commercialise, scale, sometimes reinvent or exit their compelling projects
London Geneva Madrid Hong Kong
Helping solve sometimes complicated problems with interesting people who have interesting projects with interesting problems.
A family-based private office with a mission to help founder-led organisations commercialise and build successful companies, focusing on long-term growth and positive societal impact.
A small, family-based and family managed private office headquartered in Switzerland with offices and activities in the UK, Hong Kong and Spain.
We have built in the past and strive to help the founders and teams of successful local companies widen their appeal and achieve greater success. We specifically enjoy working with organisations with interesting projects that have a positive influence on people, communities, or the world, prioritising long-term success over short-term gains.
At heart an Engineering led mentality for solving the sort of complex puzzles and problems facing almost all companies and founders when trying to build their business, with a history of using data to help drive future decisions.
Of course over the years we have also understood the importance of building key links and support from the investor community whilst learning to speak their language so that the values of the business can incorporate and use the funding and support of financial institutions and investors.
Much of our work these days is in the area of helping to raise funds, communicate with financial institutions, find strong complimentary partners and create the visibility that sme’s and smaller organisations desperately need.
It seems to us that this all starts with the need incredibly clear strategy and destination so that all stake holders both staff, funders, clients and investors can see where the business is heading and choose which party of the journey they can most effectively help with.
Underpinning all of this is an ethos of inclusion, and a strong belief that success comes from teams and people working together in a common object. Where the business is focused on driving real benefits for customers.
If a team or a business can provide a world class service and/or a world class product to its clients then success and financial rewards will follow.
Examples of Past Successes & Current Interests:
Original history and heritage comes from a small but effective land management and forestry business. Most probably this is where the fundamental outlook of always planning for the next 20 years was indoctrinated into our approach.
Currently we are focusing much effort on the Sustainable Building Solutions market place: We already have a site in Surrey where we are taking waste timber material for use as biofuel.
But we are particularly interested in developing this field and currently have our team researching off-grid water supply capabilities (including clean water), in ground energy solutions, more sustainable building products and solutions etc.
