Hoffnungs­träger
Verantwor­tungs­­­­­eigentum

Supports companies with succession planning to ensure that long-term value continues to grow.

Some companies are more than just economic entities. They embody values, attitudes and a sense of responsibility that are intended to endure across generations. Hoffnungsträger Verantwortungseigentum (purpose-driven ownership) supports entrepreneurs in transitioning their companies to an ownership structure that ensures precisely this: long-term impact rather than short-term profit. Purpose-driven rather than purely profit-driven.

Our first company under purpose-driven ownership:
Rosskopf + Partner AG

Rosskopf + Partner is the engineering and manufacturing partner for extraordinary structures, unique shapes and high-quality surfaces. With particular expertise in solid surface materials and other materials, as well as technical precision from its own production facilities, the company delivers sophisticated solutions – from the initial sketch to the final implementation. The team thinks proactively, plans with foresight and creates fascinating spaces with great freedom of form and impressive details, implementing projects with 180 employees across more than 25 countries. The focus is on the DACH region.
