About Us

HISTORY

Strong steps

J2L Partners was founded in 2012 by a group of executives with extensive experience as CEOs, CFOs, company advisors and investment managers.

Our objective was to make the best of this experience we have in leading major operations to identify market opportunities and for business development. In a short period of time we built a strong portfolio of projects and extended our offerings to assist companies in the development of investment theses and in mergers and acquisitions. This gave J2L recognition for its fulfillment capacity and for its commitment to delivering results.

We are very proud of the bridges that we have built over the past decade of joint collaboration. These bridges have reduced the distance between good ideas, profitable business and investments. They have also allowed us to accomplish our mission in generating value for our partners and shareholders and in developing trustworthy relationships with investors and partners from different sectors.

DIRECTIONS

What we believe in.

Understanding and alignment —

When it comes to business development and equity investments we consider the DNA and growth strategy of companies where new fronts are being opened.

We work with full impartiality, independence and commitment to the agreements and results settled with our clients.

Focus on generating value
for our clients and partners —

When working on the sell side of an M&A process we strive to gain a complete understanding of the business and of the particular market. The same occurs when we are on the buy side, working in tune with our client’s investment strategy.

A high-quality and professional
evaluation is the starting point
for a good business deal —

Our company evaluation process is highly professional and thorough. It is intended to lead to an ideal business deal that we define as “an agreement with conditions considered satisfactory for both sides, both in terms of timeframes and in terms of financial and non-financial aspects”.

Long-term relationships —

We do not intend to profit with one-off deals. We build trustworthy relationships to create recurring value-generating opportunities for our clients and partners.
