PROJECTS
Lighthouse Investments invests in medium-sized, innovative companies with growth potential. Below you will find an overview of some of our projects.
IT-COMPANY IN AUTHENTICATION SOFTWARE
When this provider of unique authentication software contacted Lighthouse, the company had just come out of the start-up phase. Considering they expected significant growth, they needed support. Financial impetus was expected to give the company a boost, too.
First task: Lighthouse, along with the entrepreneurs, developed a growth strategy. This strategy not only influenced the organization and its processes; it also affected the roadmap for further product development. “At this stage, we also paid attention to the planned sale of the company because if you have an idea of what the profile of the potential buyer is, you can take that into consideration in an earlier stage,” says Emile.
“In order to realize our shared ambitions, we have made the organization as capable and flexible as possible, and we have drastically reduced organizational costs.
“While we were working on the global rollout of the product, we were approached by a major international player who, eventually and after extensive due diligence, successfully took over the company.”

HIGH-TECH COMPANY IN THE CHIP INDUSTRY
This company was in a difficult phase due to a number of bad choices combined with a depressed market. But Lighthouse saw a beautiful challenge and started researching the viability of the company.
They took the first steps to ensure the continuity of the company, conducted a sharp strategic analysis, and examined the operational processes.
Through fast and effective action, the company was profitable again within six months. Subsequently, all those involved worked very hard to make sure the company performs well in the long run.
