The CzechLink capital participation project brings together investors who are considering capital entry into a local company with firms that are seeking an investor. The project supports mergers, acquisitions and joint-venture partnerships.
CzechLink is a tool which helps investors to identify potential M&A targets or joint-venture partners. It efficiently matches local companies with investors’ needs and provides investors with business and financial information materials of small, medium-sized and large enterprises in the manufacturing and IT industries that are registered in the CzechLink database. Eligible firms must have at least a five-year history and no prior declaration of bankruptcy, insolvency proceedings or reorganisation.
The project is intended for strategic and financial investors with a declared interest in the Czech capital market who sign a non-disclosure agreement with CzechInvest. After this step, the given investor receives a presentation of the selected company, a so-called prospectus, if the sell-side agrees. If both parties express interest, CzechInvest subsequently organises a meeting.
CzechLink Prospectus includes:
- company profile, its ownership structure and legal form
- quality control
- product portfolio
- economic indicators
- overall economic situation of the company
- equity offer
- location of the company and distance from the main traffic junctions
- labour indicators
- technology profile
- top customers
- main competitors
