Deal sourcing experts from Momenta, Bertram Capital, and Ara Partners shared how they find and attract hidden middle market opportunities with Grata.

Mangold Fondkommission AB, a Stockholm-based investment bank serving small and medium-sized businesses, turned to Grata as its M&A practice expanded beyond the Nordics and needed a more efficient way to identify European acquisition targets. By replacing time-intensive manual research with broader geographic coverage and more streamlined company discovery, Mangold has expanded its cross-border sourcing, engaged more potential targets, and built stronger relationships with business owners.

A global leader in chemicals and ingredients distribution, Brenntag's operation in a highly fragmented market makes the company relient on M&A as a key growth lever. Before Grata, Brenntag’s team struggled with rigid industry-code searches that made broad target screening difficult and often surfaced irrelevant companies, costing valuable time and resources.

Quarza Inversiones needed faster, more reliable screening across Europe. Valu8 by Grata centralized precise company data and filtering, cutting screening time by more than 80%.

Ridgefield Partners, a middle-market M&A firm specializing in sell-side engagements for companies in the $1–25M EBITDA range, turned to Grata to scale a sourcing process that manual tools couldn't sustain. By automating company discovery and contact enrichment through Grata's MCP, Ridgefield grew its contact database from 4,000 to over 127,000 in a matter of months, making data quality and automated sourcing the foundation of its expansion into new sectors like healthcare.

Sancovia Corporate Finance, a pan-European M&A boutique specializing in buy-and-build services for private equity firms and their portfolio companies, turned to Grata to build proprietary deal flow at scale across multiple geographies. By replacing weeks-long list-building with AI-powered search and continuous market monitoring, Sancovia has cut its target list creation from three weeks to as little as 30 minutes, sourcing 95% of over 600 new company targets directly through Grata.

TAE Europa, a boutique M&A firm based in Barcelona specializing in agri-food transactions across Europe, turned to Valu8 by Grata to modernize a deal process built on fragmented data sources. By replacing manual research across SABI, Google, LinkedIn, and press coverage with Valu8's Similarity Search and ownership data, Managing Partner Alvaro Raventos Rodenas and his team cut buyer list-building time by 75% and slashed corporate group verification from 30 minutes to just 2 — freeing analysts to focus on closing deals rather than chasing data.

Wickdale Capital, a traditional search fund focused on acquiring one exceptional B2B business for the long term, turned to Grata to cut through an opaque private market. By replacing manual research with targeted, data-driven outreach, founder Kunal Pasrija identified, approached, and closed the right acquisition — finding his deal not through volume, but through precision.
