Financing

With more than two decades in equity capital markets, Christian advises growth SMEs and mid-sized companies on how to access public and private financing with the right structure, sequencing, and market positioning. He works directly with founders, CEOs, and shareholders on financing paths that support expansion, acquisition programs, shareholder reorganizations, and time-sensitive balance-sheet transitions.

As an accredited Euronext Listing Sponsor for Growth and Access in Paris and Brussels, he brings end-to-end execution support across pre-IPO preparation, equity story framing, documentation, regulator and exchange coordination, investor process management, and roadshow sequencing. His mandates also extend to private placements, capital increases, convertible and straight debt structures, post-listing support, and delisting situations when public markets no longer fit the company's strategy.

His work is particularly relevant for healthcare, biotech, medtech, technology, and other innovation-led sectors where investor credibility, valuation discipline, and transaction timing materially affect outcomes. The operating principle remains straightforward: keep the financing route aligned with the company’s long-term agenda while managing counterparties, market windows, and execution pressure with precision.
