M&C‘s Equity Investments

The establishment of a separate private equity company, M&C TechGroup Gentics Holding GmbH, in 2019, which is based at the Group Head Office in Ratingen, constitutes a business activity of the M&C Group going beyond the usual scope of its operations.

Equity Investment Concept

For this purpose, M&C has developed an equity investment scheme and declared it to be the business purpose of an independent subsidiary, M&C TechGroup Gentics Holding GmbH. The scheme not only defines M&C's own goals, but also the specific advantages that arise for M&C and, in particular, for the company seeking a partnership or the startup entrepreneur. Hence, M&C‘s approach offers a comprehensive and at the same time compact basis for straightforward and successful discussions with M&C.


The concept primarily focuses on existing or future entrepreneurial activities, especially from M&C's business sector or its periphery and extends to the joint development of products and services.   

In addition, existing companies can also discuss other projects such as establishing new business fields, strengthening or consolidating market activities or further opportunities of growth. M&C is open to consider any business proposition or business development idea within our competence field of analytical technology.

A major advantage for partner companies is the possibility of drawing on M&C’s business and market experience of more than 35 years to achieve their own goals faster with a higher degree of security and at minimum cost. Furthermore, M&C can even offer modern business and production premises as well as existing infrastructures, e.g. in the fields of communications or logistics, if required.

Ensuring Entrepreneurial Freedom

An M&C participation can mean entrepreneurial involvement, but other ways of implementation are also possible and are even preferred. M&C explicitly does not intend to dominate, but rather to support and encourage, and is therefore very keen on discussing the “right”, i.e. most promising, way of implementation. As an owner-managed, medium-sized Group of companies, M&C's decision-making paths are short, fast and flexible. Individual and situation-specific evaluations and decisions are typical of M&C anyway. In this respect, M&C has a clearly defined mindset and explicitly does not intend to think and act as a financial investor. For this reason, there are also no medium-term exit strategies or “earn-out” targets. Consequently, continuous growth and sustained success in the long run are M&C's declared goals. 


In this sense, we accelerate the growth and extend the business success of our partner companies through a genuine long-term cooperation, e.g. in terms of developing new products, opening up market access or using existing and successful distribution networks.

M&C Acquired a Stake in WI.TEC Sensorik GmbH

Immediately after the establishment of M&C TechGroup Gentics Holding GmbH, a first equity investment was realized in 2019 – M&C acquired a stake in the Wesel-based WI.TEC Sensorik GmbH , which is specialized in photometric gas measurement technology. The cooperation between the two partners is successful on both sides and has been intensified continuously since then.

Investment in compprice analytical components GmbH

In 2021, the second equity investment was made to participate in this startup company. In the coming months, the young company will expand its structured market development in a targeted manner.

Another Equity Investment in Preparation

In 2022, M&C intends to acquire shares in another company that is already established in the market and will thus further expand its investment activities.
