About
Based on the shores of lake Zürich with partners world-wide, Xandance & Partners connects family offices and venture capital companies globally. We source and share select investment opportunities, private transactions, and direct investments in the alternative investment space.
​
The companies in our portfolio go through a multi-stage vetting phase before we start working with them to acquire additional funding and partners by connecting family offices, VC’s etc. from our network, while also investing in them ourselves.
​
We are industry agnostic, but predominantly work with companies that have a finalized product, proven business model, an excellent executive team and are now looking to grow.

We identify direct investments and select fund opportunities to facilitate the development of a greener and more sustainable economy.
