NV Holdings is a privately owned investment and operating group. While our approach shares certain characteristics with private equity and other investment organisations, we distinguish ourselves through our entrepreneurial heritage and hands-on approach to ownership and operations.

We believe successful investment requires more than capital.

We work closely with the businesses we own and support, contributing strategic direction, operational expertise, financial discipline and relevant relationships where these can create meaningful value.

We consider established businesses with strong fundamentals, capable leadership and meaningful opportunities for growth.

Our areas of interest include film, media and entertainment; hospitality and leisure; luxury travel and tourism; property and selected strategic investments.

We consider opportunities on an individual basis rather than applying a single size threshold to every investment.

Factors such as revenue, profitability, market position, growth potential, strategic fit and the opportunity for NV Holdings to add value all form part of our evaluation.

No. Depending on the opportunity and the objectives of the parties involved, we may consider full acquisitions, majority investments, significant minority investments, joint ventures, growth capital, management partnerships and strategic co-investments.

Our primary focus is on established businesses with proven fundamentals. However, we may consider selected early-stage opportunities where there is exceptional strategic potential and a strong alignment with our investment approach.

Yes. We welcome confidential approaches from business owners, founders, shareholders, advisors and intermediaries.

If your business has strong fundamentals and meaningful potential for future growth, we would be interested in understanding the opportunity.

Supporting documents can also be submitted through our opportunity enquiry process.

We understand that acquisition and investment discussions can involve commercially sensitive information.

Information submitted through our opportunity process will be handled appropriately and with due consideration for confidentiality.

This depends on the circumstances of each transaction.

We recognise the value of experienced management teams and seek to establish structures that align leadership, ownership and long-term business objectives.

We value strong businesses, capable people, transparent relationships and aligned objectives.
