Startex AI

Startex AI is an AI-powered platform for M&A deal origination in the Italian and European lower mid-market. We help investors, private equity funds, family offices, corporate acquirers and M&A advisors identify and connect with SMEs that are open to selling, partnering or raising capital and vice versa, we help entrepreneurs find the right buyer or investor for their business.

Our proprietary matching engine analyses financial, sectoral and strategic data across a database of 500,000+ Italian SMEs, surfacing off-market opportunities that would otherwise never be found through traditional networks.

We actively work with companies in the textile and fashion sector, manufacturers, distributors and brands, that are exploring ownership transitions, whether driven by generational succession, strategic repositioning or the need for growth capital. If you are considering any kind of extraordinary transaction, or if you know someone who is, we'd love to connect.
