07/02/202321/02/2023 Administrator

Following on from our recent blog and podcast episode exploring ‘Life as an entrepreneur in a woke world’, we thought we’d continue with this theme and delve into a few areas that whilst exciting and full of opportunity for many people, there is a degree of hot air surrounding them. Topics such as the metaverse, anti-woke/ESG funds and the digitisation of everything post-Covid. Our CEO, Daniel Hansen, was recently in conversation with…

03/11/202121/02/2023 Administrator

When the EU launched its long-term budget (The multiannual financial framework covering 2021-2027), which was adopted 17 December 2020, together with its recovery plan NextGenerationEU (NGEU), the temporary instrument designed to boost the recovery of the pandemic, it was the largest stimulus package ever financed in Europe. The amount is a staggering EUR 2.018 trillion to help rebuild a post-COVID-19 Europe. The NGEU plan is a more than EUR 800 billion temporary recovery…

28/02/201830/07/2018 Administrator

Type ‘productivity’ into Google and the response is overwhelming – there are endless tips on how to boost it, apps to help you hone it and courses you can sign up for that claim they will change the way you work forever. And it’s not surprising – we all, ultimately, want to be more productive, whether in our personal lives or at work. But we are bombarded with so many…

Why the people behind the numbers are more important

12/02/201815/03/2021 Administrator

Daniel Hansen discusses the importance of the entrepreneurial spirit behind the companies OMNIA invests in. I really do believe that doing business successfully comes down to one thing – and I’m not talking about money. It’s all about people, how they lead and the relationships they build. Over the years I’ve come to the conclusion that the driving force behind any successful business is the people in it, rather than…

Go your own way – why OMNIA Private Equity is the right partner for entrepreneurs

01/02/201803/08/2018 Administrator

‘Synergy’ is a tired word. Today, it’s sorely over-used in business, and has become almost meaningless in many of the contexts in which it is used. Which is a shame, because at heart, it actually perfectly describes a truth that I believe is one of the most important aspects of doing business – that sometimes, by working together, we can be a lot more than just the sum of our…

Richer lives – how volunteering enriches you as much as those you help

19/01/201803/08/2018 Administrator

I don’t volunteer to make my own life better. And I certainly don’t do it to make money. There is, on the face of it, nothing to be gained from giving your time up to help others – but of course, it is, as many people will testify, one of the most transformative things you can do with your life. One of the most important lessons that I’ve learned in…

Alternative financing and routes to prosperity

18/01/201803/08/2018 Administrator

As business people, we’ve all been there. I know I certainly have – as an entrepreneur who has built many successful businesses over the years, I know that sometimes a little extra financial support can make a huge amount of difference. It’s the push that can take your venture from a small to medium-sized one, to a big one – or from a moderately performing one to a business that’s…

Conscious investing

12/01/201803/08/2018 Administrator

Whether it’s through supporting investment products that further a particular social or environmental cause, or by simply by taking a more responsible approach to the businesses I back, I’m a firm believer that where I put my money matters. And I’m not alone – conscious investing is big business today. Many prospective investors – particularly younger ones, including so-called ‘millennials’ – are keen to understand more about how their money…

Straight talking networking for success

10/01/201803/08/2018 Administrator

I’ll admit it: I only know one way to do business – to take the personal approach. I’ve always talked about how I think the only way to be truly successful is to deal with people, not companies, and that still stands. It’s a way of working that has led me into a huge number of fascinating business relationships – some fruitful, some not so, but all have been a…
