North Rhine-Westphalia

An established digital and media company with its own sports team management platform

The GmbH, a company established in 2016 and headquartered in North Rhine-Westphalia, is for sale. The company combines expertise in digital media and communications with the development and operation of its own digital products. The company’s business activities include, in particular, the development and operation of Internet portals as well as Internet-based brokerage, trading, and sales activities. A key component of the company is the development and operation of its own digital platform. It is a modern team management and communication solution for sports clubs, coaches, players, and parents, and supports the organization and administration of sports teams, practices, games, tournaments, and other events. Features include, among others, managing availability and absences, communication within teams, managing multiple teams and user roles, parent-child links, and mobile access via iOS and Android. It is available in the Apple App Store and Google Play Store and is continuously being developed. The product has its own technical infrastructure, a standalone brand, and a subscription-based business model with paid premium features. As a result, the platform offers attractive opportunities for further growth and international expansion. The GmbH is particularly well-suited for buyers who wish to acquire an existing digital company with its own product development and strategically develop it further. What makes it attractive is the combination of an existing GmbH structure, its own brand, an in-house developed digital product, existing app infrastructure, a presence on iOS and Android, an established subscription model, and the existing technical and conceptual expertise. For strategic buyers in the fields of software, SaaS, sports, media, digital business, or sports tech, there are various opportunities to expand the existing business model. There is particular potential in increased marketing within the sports club community, partnerships with clubs and associations, expanding into additional sports and target groups, introducing additional premium features, and expanding into new markets. The company is being offered for sale for personal reasons. The company is seeking a buyer who will take over the existing business—and in particular the digital product—and actively drive its further growth; however, this is not a requirement. Potential buyers include strategic acquirers as well as entrepreneurs and investors who wish to take over and further develop an existing digital business model. A structured handover, as well as training on existing processes, the product, and the technical infrastructure, can be arranged on an individual basis. Further information on revenue, earnings, user numbers, technical infrastructure, and key financial metrics will be provided to qualified prospective buyers after initial contact and upon expression of interest.

Buying a company vs. buying a firm

Buying a company means acquiring an independent organizational unit that regularly carries out an economic activity. A company can consist of one or several business operations. An individual can also found such an independent unit if they regularly carry out an economic activity — in that case it is called a sole proprietorship. As a rule, sole proprietors don't have to register in the commercial register; without that registration, they don't legally count as a "firm." A trade name, colloquially a "firm," is the name under which a company or sole proprietor appears publicly and conducts its business. Buying "a firm" therefore technically means acquiring the company's name or trading name. In everyday use, though, it's used interchangeably with buying a company — i.e. acquiring the entire business.
