At Paragon, every acquisition is more than just a transaction: it is a long-term vision, a commitment to supporting the transfer and development of local businesses while addressing global challenges. With this in mind, we have taken a stake in Les Pépinières Genevoises, an emblematic company in the canton of Geneva.
A Thoughtful Entrepreneurial Transition
Transferring a business is first of all ensuring its continuity. This is what motivated Mike Wolfson and Vincent Compagnon, two passionate entrepreneurs who joined forces to preserve the excellence and expertise of Les Pépinières Genevoises. Their goal: to ensure the longevity of this company, which plays a key role in the local economic fabric.
Tailored Support
When Vincent Compagnon considered the future of Les Pépinières Genevoises, he was looking for more than just a buyer. He wanted a sustainable solution that respected the values and identity of his company. With Paragon and its club deal of investors, a smooth transition was put in place, allowing him to remain involved and support this new phase.
An Investment Aligned with Our Vision
Our commitment to this project is fully in line with our approach to engaged private equity:
