Capital that grows.
Amplio is a private investment partnership that backs SMEs and business owners with hands-on capital and support to grow.
A wide and flexible investment mandate which can fund up to €10m, across a range of primary and secondary capital situations.
Investors who are Do-ers.
In Latin, Amplio means to enlarge, to make wider, to extend, to increase, to amplify.
Returns sit at the centre of the playbook; around them, the four kinds of fitness we work on with every business we back, the levers behind each, and a network of external partners we bring in when a situation calls for it.
Straight answers.
Amplio is the private investment partnership of Corbel Capital, backed by partners and private investors from industry who have founded, led and sold businesses.
Growth capital for established, profitable or near-profitable companies with a clear plan and a leadership team that wants a partner, not just a cheque. Minority or majority positions; equity, or structured capital where it suits the business better.
When a business needs capital and experience to grow, acquire or exit. For a succession, or a founder taking some value off the table. Amplio is flexible on holding period, so there is no clock running from the day it invests.

Get in touchOur due diligence is akin to a full private equity process, drawing on a deeper operational understanding of what the business is and what it can become. We actively engage our wide network to unlock unique underwriting insights for each transaction, adding a further layer to our own due diligence.
We are do-ers; we get our hands dirty. We like businesses where we can add value in situations that are uneconomic or too messy for traditional investment firms to operate in. We work to a strict exit-maximisation playbook: strategic fitness, commercial fitness.
