Airesis S.A.

Airesis S.A. operates as a private equity and venture capital enterprise, involved in a broad range of investment phases. These encompass initial capital injections (early, mid, and late-stage venture), supporting emerging growth, providing growth capital, orchestrating turnarounds, facilitating buyouts, and engaging in pre-initial public offering (pre-IPO) transactions. The firm directs its capital towards small and mid-sized entities, showing a particular inclination for sports brands, while also allocating funds to the real estate and broader brand sectors. Under its "development" investment arm, Airesis typically deploys approximately $3 million per portfolio company, anticipating a holding period of three to seven years, and frequently seeks representation on the board of directors. Conversely, the "finance" division pursues more numerous, smaller commitments, up to $0.7 million, backing around 15 to 20 companies annually, with an expected exit within one to two years. The company generally prefers to secure a controlling stake, becoming the majority shareholder in its investments. All capital deployments are made directly from its own balance sheet. Established in 2004, the firm was formerly identified as HPI Holding SA. Its primary office is situated in Clarens, Switzerland, with an additional branch located in Nyon, Switzerland.
