Why LSP Growth?
We've spent more than three decades building, growing, acquiring and selling Language Companies.
We've sat on both sides of the table — as owners, buyers, sellers and advisors.
That experience shapes the way we work. We bring practical industry knowledge, transaction experience and an understanding of the decisions that matter at every stage of a business's development.
Our advice is grounded in real situations, real transactions and the realities of running a Language Company. That's the perspective we bring to every client.
"Selling the company you built over decades is the most important deal of your life. You only get one chance to do it right — work with someone who has sat on your side of the table."
What We Believe
Preparation creates options.
The earlier you prepare, the more choices you'll have when the time comes to make an important decision.
Strategy comes before opportunity.
Whether buying or selling, the best decisions begin with a clear objective — not with the first opportunity that appears.
Value is created long before a transaction.
The businesses that achieve the best outcomes are usually the ones that have been strengthening their fundamentals for years.
Good advice isn't measured by the number of deals completed.
It's measured by the quality of the decisions that clients make.

Frequently asked questions
What does LSP Growth do?
LSP Growth is an M&A advisory and business consulting firm dedicated to the language services industry. We help owners of translation, localization, and interpreting companies sell their business, acquire other LSPs, and grow through strategy, valuation, marketing, and board services.
Who do you work with?
We work with owners of small and medium-sized language service providers — typically companies with revenue up to EUR 10 million — in Europe and worldwide, on both the buy side and the sell side of M&A transactions.
Why choose an industry-specific M&A advisor?
Language industry deals have their own logic: client concentration, linguist networks, technology stacks, and margin structures that generalist brokers misread. Our founder built, merged, and sold his own LSP group over 30+ years, completing acquisitions in Spain, Finland, the Czech Republic, Switzerland, and Italy before exiting to Acolad (formerly Technicis).
