Our expansion into Germany’s well-established market, valued at over 2.75 billion euros (1), marks a significant move in deepening Valtus’ presence in a key economy at the heart of Europe. To reach this new milestone, we have joined forces with Dr. Maier + Partner, a recognised expert with over 50 years’ of experience in working with German executives. This strategic alliance has resulted in the official launch of Valtus in Germany.

Expanding geographical footprint
This joint venture in Germany represents a strategic step for Valtus, enabling us to strengthen our geographical footprint and regional understanding. By entering the German market, we are also further extending our presence in the DACH region, following our recent entry into Austria.
With Valtus’ track record of successful acquisitions and integrations since 2018 – continued through this external growth operation – and the launch of the Valtus Alliance in 2023, we are qualified to handle complex situations and implement customised management solutions in 14 countries: Austria, Belgium, the Netherlands, Brazil, Denmark, France, the United Kingdom, Finland, Germany, Italy, Sweden, Norway, Singapore, and Spain.
Leadership’s perspective
“This joint venture is a major asset for Valtus’ successful second establishment in the DACH region (after acquisition in Austria in 2022). We believe this collaboration with a trusted player in a mature market is an effective way to accelerate the overall growth of Valtus Group.”
Philippe Soullier, Valtus Group Chairman
