We add value by working hand in hand with our portfolio companies, providing capital for expansion, as well as advising companies on their strategy.
We typically acquire minority, in rare cases control, in small or medium sized businesses. We actively participate in growing of the business, development of optimal business strategy, as well as putting in place financial management and controls, reporting and management incentives. Moreover, MW constantly seeks for synergy opportunities among the companies in its portfolio as well as involving its professional network both within and outside of the country with the aim of creating long-term impact for the assets under its umbrella.
We invest in high tech startups during their early, late and pre-IPO stages. To-date we have made several investments in US and Asian startups. We are also actively looking for Azerbaijan based startups by backing local venture studios and accelerators.
We employ a disciplined investment approach that focuses on fundamental analyses, identification of investment cycles and secular winners and losers. We work hard to react to the game changing events before they affect the market.
