“Altenburger helped us with an acquisition of a Swiss company. We found them via reference by our accountant and they provided great support and were very quick in responding to any request or change. Since the acquisition was rather limited, the ability to scale and adapt the agreement structure as well as managing the communication with the counterpart were key to the success of the deal. Thierry and his team delivered and met all our expectations. I believe their way of working helped close the deal faster and that is key to me.”
