Since no internal succession solution was found, the seller decided on an external sale. During the regulated transaction process, Edelweiss was able to successfully accompany the buyer through six bidding rounds and support them up to the final negotiations of the transaction. Particularly noteworthy is the value maximization at the end of the process through the structured bidding process. The bidding buyer parties came from large corporations in the sensor technology, industry and automotive industries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Quote from the management of Edelweiss:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cThe SENSE project has strongly underlined our expertise in the areas of sensor technology, automation and building technology. We were able to successfully demonstrate our competence in the field of technology and automation and the individual and personal advice from the seller was crucial in overcoming the initial uncertainties.
