Ernst van den Berg spent many years in the Corporate Sector before founding Dealpoint (Pty) Ltd. With a strong passion for deal-making and helping businesses grow to their full potential, he focuses on securing funding, raising growth capital, and facilitating equity participation and acquisitions.
Ernst understands that working with business owners and investors often involves more than just numbers; there’s a fair amount of emotion and personal commitment involved. That’s why he prioritizes building relationships and taking the time to understand each party’s unique needs. This approach increases the likelihood of securing not just any deal, but the right deal.
With extensive experience in corporate leadership, deal negotiations, Management Buy-Outs (MBOs), and Mergers & Acquisitions, Ernst has developed a robust network of investors and business partners. He maintains regular engagement with this network to stay aligned with investment strategies and preferences, ensuring that only relevant and high-quality opportunities are presented. When it comes to equity partnerships or mergers, aligning company cultures remains a key consideration.
