Proventis Partners is an M&A and Corporate Finance aliance of three independent advisory firms. With a common Code of Conduct which is manifested in a cooperation agreement and with a common set of values, the professionals of Proventis Partners offer integrative solutions for M&A and Corporate Finance from three offices. The brand name Proventis Partners has been created in 2001 by the Munich office, whose managing partners Jan Pörschmann and Rainer Wieser are specialized on company and project finance and M&A transactions in the sectors media and medical technology. The Swiss office started in 2009 from a merger of two M&A advisory companies which had been founded by Dr. Christoph Studinka and Teun de Ven. Both professionals have been successful as M&A advisors in mid-cap transactions before joining Proventis Partners. The Hamburg company, Hartmann Zillmer Corporate Finance, co-founded by Jost Hartmann, has existed for almost ten years and has been successfully established for advisory of small and mid-cap transactions.
