# Kudelski & Partners

> Kudelski & Partners AG is a Swiss-based family office headquartered in Zug, Switzerland, with a global outlook. For over two decades, the firm has connected vision with capital and the right people, investing with long-term conviction across private markets, hospitality, and real estate. Its guiding philosophy: "Excellence beyond boundaries, a legacy driven by innovation."

Kudelski & Partners is a multi-generational family office rooted in Switzerland. The firm honors the legacy behind every ambition while pursuing global opportunities, combining entrepreneurial drive with disciplined capital allocation. It is led today by Charles Kudelski, representing the next generation of the family's stewardship.

The firm invests with a long-term, multi-cycle view rather than chasing short-term momentum. Decisions are grounded in conviction, simplicity, and fundamental strength, with innovation embraced selectively and only where it reinforces long-term direction. As entrepreneurs themselves, the partners selectively back founders and enterprises where their capital, structure, and network can contribute to enduring success.

## Core values

The firm describes what drives it through six principles:

- **Discretion** — Confidentiality and discretion across all activities.
- **Precision** — Decisions built on structured analysis, clear processes, and disciplined execution.
- **Perspective** — Rooted in Switzerland with a global outlook; opportunities are assessed with measured, informed judgment.
- **Continuity** — A long-term focus that maintains clarity and stability across market cycles.
- **Innovation** — Questioning the status quo and adopting new ideas and technologies selectively.
- **Simplicity** — Valuing clarity and avoiding unnecessary complexity.

## Areas of expertise

The firm focuses on three core sectors:

- **Private Investments & Technologies** — Private equity, venture exposure, co-investments, and select direct positions with leading global partners. Focus areas include advanced technologies, AI, cybersecurity, digital and industrial infrastructure, climate innovation, blockchain, and health and longevity, prioritizing strong fundamentals and strategic relevance.
- **Hospitality & Experience Assets** — Hotels, restaurants, and experiential assets across Switzerland and Europe, shaped by local culture, craftsmanship, and heritage. The approach is selective and long-term, spanning the restoration of historic properties and the creation of contemporary concepts.
- **Real Estate & Infrastructure** — Residential, commercial, and rental assets in Switzerland and Poland, alongside essential and digital infrastructure such as data centres and logistics assets. The focus is on strong locations, resilient demand, and architectural clarity.

## Heritage

The Kudelski family traces its origins to the Polish nobility of the 14th century, grounded in public responsibility and a strong commitment to education. Through war, shifting borders, and political change, the family continually reinvented itself, from landowners in Eastern Europe to innovators in industry and technology. The enduring belief that "knowledge outlasts circumstances" defines the firm's heritage of resilience and long-term thinking.
