Entrepreneurship Through Acquisition and Search Funds: An Asset Class That Outperforms PE & VC
Entrepreneurship Through Acquisition and Search Funds
ETA and Search Funds have stepped into the spotlight as a high-performing asset class, often delivering IRRs above 35% and outperforming both PE and VC. Search funds work in the following way: Recent MBA graduates, backed by experienced investors, search, acquire and run stable, profitable companies with €1–5 million in EBITDA. These businesses sit below the radar of traditional PE, yet are too mature for VC.
The search fund model is fueled by the global succession crises, with many attractive targets being SMEs whose owners are ready to retire without clear successors. It’s a rare moment in the market: steady cash flows, positive margins, sensible valuations, and ambitious entrepreneur-operators taking over and creating value. The result is an attractive blend of high potential and comparatively low risk, drawing interest from both entrepreneurial talent and capital. As the ETA and Search Funds space evolves, investment options are becoming institutionalized, with dedicated PE-style vehicles giving investors diversified access to this rising asset class.
In this session, Professor Ivana Naumovska, academic director of the ETA and Search Funds Hub at INSEAD, is joined by Gernot Eisinger MBA’92D, a PE expert and a partner at INSETA, a fund focused on ETA and Search Fund investments, and Kieron Chalder MBA’19J, Co-CEO of Emotion Mobility, a business acquired through the search fund model, and partner at INSETA. Together, they will unpack the evolving ETA and Search Fund landscape, and the opportunities emerging for both investors and aspiring entrepreneur-operators.
