Strategic growth partner for Peter Park

 

We are very pleased to welcome Great Hill Partners as a strategic growth partner for our previously supported start-up Peter Park!

 

Great Hill Partners (“Great Hill”), a private equity firm that invests in high-growth and disruptive companies, has announced that it has acquired a majority stake in Peter Park System GmbH (“the Company”), a leading provider of digital parking solutions.

Great Hill's investment will accelerate the expansion of Peter Park's sales activities and technology, strengthen the Company's market presence and further drive its ambitious growth strategy.

As part of the investment, the family office of the ARBAnova Family Foundation will take an additional minority stake. Maximilian Schlereth, co-founder and CEO of Peter Park, as well as the founding team - Patrick Bartler (COO), Stefan Schenk (CCO) and Christoph Heinle (CTO) - will continue to lead the company and retain a significant stake in the company.

Great Hill's investment brings Peter Park's total growth capital to over 100 million euros.

We are delighted to have supported Peter Park as a reliable investor over the past few years and would like to thank the founding team for the trust they have placed in us. We have followed the company's successful development into a leading provider of digital parking solutions with great appreciation - and are convinced that the next chapter of this success story is now beginning with Great Hill Partners.

We look forward to working with Great Hill Partners and Peter Park in the future!

Congratulations to Annika Peter and Yannick Öchsner on their successful graduation!

 

 

Our dual students Annika Peter and Yannick Öchsner recently reached a special milestone with the completion of their studies at the DHBW Mosbach at the Bad Mergentheim campus. After intensive years of learning and practical application of their knowledge at the ARBAnova Family Foundation in Würzburg, both have successfully completed their studies (industrial engineering and business administration) and can now look forward to a promising professional future.

It is particularly pleasing that Annika Peter was honoured with the Economics and Ethics Prize for her outstanding Bachelor's thesis. Her thesis entitled ‘Development of a concept for the market launch of an innovative product in the field of electrical heating technology for properties (buildings with residential technology)’ not only impressed with its innovative approach, but also with its practical relevance and the ethical aspect that it incorporated into its considerations.

Yannick Öchsner also impressed with his practice-orientated Bachelor's thesis and stood out for his ability to work in a team and innovative way of thinking. His projects and ideas not only helped to improve processes in our company, but also motivated the entire team.


The two graduates were honoured by their lecturers and family members at a ceremony in the Kursaal in Bad Mergentheim. The event provided an opportunity to celebrate their
