THE COMPANY

Pilocap is a leading provider of training in machine operation (CACES®), electrical safety, working at height and health and safety. Founded in Toulouse in 1993, Pilocap enjoyed several years of strong growth. It was at this point that the company's managers decided to organize their departure.

THE TRANSACTION

A meeting with the Ama Partners team facilitated the creation of an MBO in which a member of management was appointed to take over the company. Ama Partners supported Pilocap's management throughout the process, in particular in the selection of new shareholders, including the private equity funds Capital Croissance, Adaxtra Capital and UI Investissement.
In an MBO transaction, the human aspect is paramount as the fund continues to work with the existing manager to develop the business.
