Trianon Corporate Finance enabled Stéphane François to promote his approach to Private Equity funds, strengthen his understanding of the financial issues around the transaction, build his business plan, and defend his interests.
Stéphane François partnered with Alliance Entreprendre in order to acquire the shares of FP Pack.
“I signed a contract with Trianon CF in April 2016. I had identified FP Pack as a great company that perfectly matched my area of expertise. Taking over a company is a long and difficult process. I considered that I needed an advisor at my side to complete the steps relating to this operation: analyze the company, evaluate it, build the business plan, structure the financing, find the right partners, and defend my interests. Trianon CF largely met my expectations and provided me with very professional and operational support. This acquisition was completed in 10 months.” Stéphane François
