About Us

Adinvest AG is a private family office based in Zug, Switzerland. The company invests in a broad range of financial assets and alternative investments including real estate. It also owns The Sunderland Collection, a notable collection of antique maps and atlases. Adinvest collaborates with other family offices and institutional investors. However, in contrast with its former business (see below), Adinvest today acts solely for its own account.

We believe in supporting new ideas and aspire to facilitate change for social good. Amongst other participations, Adinvest has recently sponsored Promontory Therapeutics Ltd, a clinical-stage oncology drug development company in New York, and continues to work closely with exxeta AG, a leading advisory/tech company active throughout Germany.

History

Adinvest AG was acquired in 1989 by Dr. Neil V. Sunderland, a Swiss investor with an international background in corporate finance. For over 30 years, Adinvest provided corporate finance advice and investment services to HNW individuals, family offices and institutional clients with an emphasis on private equity transactions. Its advisory practice served a diverse range of institutional clients covering private placements, M&A, management buyouts, and other financial transactions.

Former clients of Adinvest AG included The InterContinental Hotel Group, The Schmidheiny Group (incl. Leica plc, Cosa Liebermann SA, Bridgewater Resources Corp.) and The Tettamanti Group (incl. Saurer AG, Financial Group of North Atlantic SA), as well as Alcan Aluminum Ltd., Bechtel Enterprises Inc. and Smorgon Steel Pty. Ltd.. Adinvest AG has advised, and invested in, many early and growth-stage businesses with a particular focus on the life sciences, fintech and the digital economy. Over the years, Adinvest has been privileged to collaborate with an inspiring group of entrepreneurs, founders and business leaders. Investment highlights include Xing AG in Germany and Adyen BV in The Netherlands.
