Stated investment criteria

What Burda Principal Investments says it buys

Read from Burda Principal Investments’s own website in August 2026. This is what the firm says it buys, not what anyone has recorded it buying, and figures are shown in the currency the firm itself used - nothing here is converted. Every line links to the page it was read from.

Transaction typesGrowth1
People listed on its team page232

A stated mandate is a firm’s description of itself and was true of the page on the day it was read; firms widen and narrow what they will look at without updating the site. The team figure counts the people the firm shows on one team page, so it is a floor rather than a headcount: firms that split their team across tabs or load it in pages will read low. Nothing here is a commitment by Burda Principal Investments to consider any particular business, and nothing on this page is represented as being for sale.
