About
CapMan’s private equity arm, CapMan Buyout, invests in unlisted companies across the Nordics. As experts in mid-market buyouts, their goal is to find interesting growth stories, niche-market leaders, passionate entrepreneurs and winning company cultures.
Challenge
For a decade, CapMan Buyout tried external consultants and adopted different models and internal systems to evaluate and enhance board performance, but concluded that they were spending too much time and resources managing evaluations of their own board and those of portfolio companies. Ultimately, they decided they needed something new.
Solution
Through their network, CapMan Buyout was introduced to BoardClic’s digital platform. BoardClic’s Board Evaluation product lets users access a fully data driven process with best-practice question formats that are customised for different roles on the board and at the C-suite. We were an instant match for CapMan Buyout and their requirements.
Results
Saves time and effort on administration that can be channelled to business development.
Increases board evaluation response rates and engagement.
Performance of individual portfolio companies can be benchmarked against the internal CapMan average as well as against broader BoardClic’s data.
Provides CapMan Buyout with a comprehensive view of how boards are performing in different areas and where to make improvements.
