When an entrepreneur sells their business, the next question is what to do with the proceeds. Marktlink Capital was built to answer it. Founded in 2020, it has raised over €3bn in committed capital, almost entirely from Dutch entrepreneurs and families, and Inflexion has made a minority investment to back its ambition to become Europe’s leading private markets platform. 🤝
In this episode, Marktlink Group managing partners Tim van der Meer and Tom Beltman join Inflexion’s Sander Ruijter and host Tim Smallbone to share why they chose a minority partner when they had no wish to sell, how a commercial culture built in M&A advice became an edge in private markets, and why asset managers need to be hunters as well as farmers.
