OLTA SF1 – Infrastructure-Adjacent Search Fund in Germany

OLTA SF1 is a search fund set up to acquire and operate a single, asset-light infrastructure-adjacent SME in Germany’s Mittelstand. We are not an accelerator, but a focused single-search vehicle with a hands-on operating approach. Focus: Infrastructure-adjacent products & services (energy, digital, transport, utilities, social/public). Target company profile: Germany, EBITDA €1–5m, margins >15%, EV €5–25m, long profitable track record, succession, or special situation. Structure: 20 search units of €30k each (total €600k budget, up to 24 months); 1.50x step-up at acquisition and right of first refusal to invest pro rata in the deal. Team: The Searcher has an industrial and Infrastructure-related operations background and partnered with OLTA as an active, single-search operating sponsor, backed by a platform of investors with multi-decade infrastructure investment experience. If you’re an investor interested in German infrastructure-adjacent SMEs, I’d be happy to connect. You can reach me via DM here on Searchfunder. We currently have commitments for ~50% of the search capital, primarily from existing network investors active within the infrastructure sphere (investors, operators and developers).
