We believe great companies and shareholder value are created over a period of time. Investors who are transaction driven, who have an emphasis on immediate returns and other short-term strategies add little value to the long-term vitality and sustained growth of a company.  Our reputation is our greatest asset, and we maintain a long-term view of our relationships.

 

We are an investment advisory, consulting services, executive search, mergers & acquisitions, business development and corporate development arm that specializes in helping software technology companies launch their operations, engage with acquirers, strategic partners, recruit key management members, equity financings and develop revenue-bearing partnerships while driving market share penetration successfully.

 

We assisted HP, Oracle, Siebel Systems, Salesforce.com, Sun Microsystems, Tumbleweed, Weblogic with board of directors and executive management team recruitment, as well as advising Alterna (Canada), Business Objects (France), EditGrid (China), Exalead (France), MySQL (Finland), Sapiens (Israel), Swivel Secure (UK), Threatmetrix (Australia), Trolltech (Norway), Uniface (The Netherlands), Verilog (France) successfully enter the US marketplace with exceptional team formation services and strategic business alliances.

Our advisory services focus on implementing sound strategies to maximize investor value while addressing management’s execution objectives.  Our services are earned through a combination of equity participation and fees.

 

"GenevaGroup International is absolutely the best, they bring a lot more than talent to the table. Salesforce.com is built strictly on our ability to recruit the very best people, to execute the best approach, and to deliver superb results to our customers. GenevaGroup International has been a true partner in our business in several ways: First, they have been unbelievably helpful in identifying and recruiting key talent that is a part of our management team today.  Second, they've been wonderful about providing us with sound business advice. And third, they have been wonderful about getting us access to new customers and key investors. They are absolutely one of the best partners that we could ever hope for in our business."
