Martin G. Schmitt has been a Managing Partner at Steinbeis M&A Partners GmbH since 2017.

He is primarily responsible for strategic corporate development and deal origination, and advises mid-market entrepreneurs, shareholders, and investors on M&A transactions, with a focus on succession planning, strategic realignments, and buy-and-build strategies.

With over 20 years of experience in M&A, corporate strategy, and corporate development, he has successfully structured and executed more than 40 transactions.
His industry focus is on technology-driven markets, particularly (i) Information & Communication Technology, (ii) Distribution, E-Commerce & Consumer Goods, and (iii) Business Services.
As an experienced dealmaker, he understands the perspectives of both buyers and sellers and develops solutions with a clear focus on value creation, negotiation outcomes, and the interests of the people involved.

Thanks to this experience, he combines strategic foresight with operational insight and advises his clients in a practical, entrepreneurial manner and on an equal footing.

In his personal life, he finds balance with his family, in nature, through yoga, downhill biking, and golf, as well as through his passions for cooking and wine.
