Welcome to the akolo blog
A new editorial home for notes on European ETA, search funds, and the structured future of succession.
Why we are writing
European business succession is entering a decisive decade. Family-owned mid-market companies, often the quiet engines of their regions, are looking for the next generation of operators. Search funds and ETA are one of the most effective structures to meet that demand, provided the process around them is rigorous, data-led, and transparent.
This blog is where we will share what we learn as we build the platform for that process.
What to expect
- Playbooks for searchers, investors, and advisors
- Data briefings drawn from the akolo Data Vault
- Product notes as we approach our Q3 2026 launch
- Conversations with operators who have done it
A structured start
We want the blog to look and feel like the platform itself: calm, precise, and built for people who make important decisions. Expect shorter reading time than you may be used to, and every post grounded in something you can act on.
Thank you for reading. Welcome.
