Our skills
at the service of entrepreneurs

Our multidisciplinary teams meet your needs in financial advice

Fundraising

We support your growth ambitions

After analysing your strategy, your business plan and your need for financing, we support you in your fundraising operation.

Among the hundreds of investors that we know, we identify those who are likely to be interested in your fundraising operation and we contact them in accordance with your confidentiality policy.

Then we work alongside you through the process, from negotiations to the conclusion of the transaction. Depending upon the situation, we can contact private investors, family‑offices, investment funds, or industrial investors if appropriate.

Sell‑side advisory

We support responsible companies through the complex process of selling a business.

 

Our support is tailored to your specific needs. You benefit from solid financial and extra‑financial expertise throughout the sale process. 

The aim is to optimize the value of your company while preserving and even enhancing the positive impact you have on society and/or the environment.

Selling your company must be part of a more sustainable and responsible future. We strive to present you buyers or investors aligned with your values.

Colibri Advisory
A responsible firm

As an accredited Entreprise Solidaire d'Utilité Sociale (ESUS), our firm respects the principles of the social and solidarity economy (SSE), which are integrated in its statutes. Our raison d'être is reflected in our priority commitment to serve companies with a positive social or environmental impact, while ensuring that we ourselves have a responsible development. 

We limit our carbon footprint on a daily basis and share a strong code of ethics. We work exclusively on the side of entrepreneurs and wish to maintain our independence and objectivity. There is a complete absence of conflicts of interest.

We also offer special rates for young companies with a positive environmental or social impact.

Doing our part
serving our clients and the general interest

Independence

​We prioritize customer proximity and long‑lasting job quality rather than the race for growth and turnover. Our positioning ensures a total independence and precludes any conflict of interest, allowing us to put the interest of our clients as our top priority in all circumstances

Priority given to companies that focus on sustainable development

Our firm has worked on the creation of a body dedicated to impact investment. We advise companies of all sizes operating in the sustainable development sector. When it comes to young companies, which want to raise funds for example, we offer reduced fees to help them.

Ethics and best practices

We support our clients with loyalty and pedagogy, from the beginning to the end of the transaction, and even beyond in the event of post‑transaction litigation. We promote good professional practices: we coordinated the drafting of the guide to good practice in M&A and the guide to impact investment.

Priority given to French companies

We believe in France, land of economic initiatives. We mainly work for French family companies and French entrepreneurs. We help them to find funding for sustainable investment in France. We encourage our clients to connect with other French companies when it suits their interests, and we help them grow internationally.
