Axiom Partners travelled to London and was invited to the Financial Times / Aston Martin F1 Team - 𝙒𝙝𝙖𝙩'𝙨 𝙙𝙧𝙞𝙫𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙧𝙞𝙨𝙚 𝙞𝙣 𝙨𝙥𝙤𝙧𝙩𝙨 𝙞𝙣𝙫𝙚𝙨𝙩𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩? 𝗞𝗲𝘆 𝗧𝗮𝗸𝗲𝗮𝘄𝗮𝘆𝘀 - This event discussed how sport has long been and continues to evoke emotion and passion while generating colossal interest and creating superstars. Surprisingly, the panel of Samuel Agini (Financial Times), Jefferson Slack, Alexander Walsh (Blackstone) and Michele Kang (Cognosante) spoke on the fact that very few sports teams have institutional investors. Blackstone's Alexander Walsh argued that the volatility and unpredictability of returns inhibit their appetite for deploying into teams, as they look for stable returns as they seek core investment-grade products. In tandem with the sometimes rapid descent or rise in sports teams' performance, this stops them from entering the sports team ownership model. Blackstone prefers investing in sports derivatives such as Infrastructure, services, and media, where a predictable financial model is available, aligning with the stable growth conditions of the capital they receive. Michelle Kang, CEO & Founder of Cognosante, championed women's sports investment and countered the traditional investment strategy by demonstrating plenty of opportunity to outperform traditional institutional-grade investments. She shared a club investment case that went from a £3m valuation to a £235m exit, proving the potential of finding value dislocation in sports Jefferson Slack, Managing Director of Aston Martin F1 Team, with whom our IT Staffing company Circle8 International recently partnered as the Global Talent Partner, said that Formula 1 continues to drive innovation and eyeballs to the B2B market; that cost controls such as spending caps and tighter fiscal control have not only stopped the domination of 2 or 3 teams it's now a better environment to invest. Also speaking on the championship has become more interesting as the focus has shifted from solely driver-centric to more about the team. With the rise of technology in the sport, team principals, engineers, and IT experts are now getting much more coverage. Unlike other sports, Formula One's consistency and the experiential experience it offers its fans are the best in the world with unabated inflows of companies investing in teams. That after reviving the team with the legendary Aston Martin brand, the team is now one of the most popular in the paddock and has gone from 10th to 5th in terms of social media presence. A great event by the Financial Times and Aston Martin F1 Team. We look forward to more. #SportsInvestment #FormulaOne #WomenInSports #FinancialTimes #AstonMartinF1 #swisslinx #circle8 #talent #staffing

We all have THAT friend at the party who threatens to tell you something. But doesn't. #staffing #preannouncement #partnership #circle8 #giveusaclue #collaboration https://lnkd.in/eS-CwpMh
A dream partnership is about to become a reality. I Remember our early days when this type of collaboration felt impossible. We've come a long way, and that's a huge testament to everyone who pushed us forward. The exciting part: We're joining forces with a high-performance data and technology powerhouse. It isn't just any commercial partnership – it's a perfect match as they have mirrored our journey, overtaking many in their field and becoming a frontrunner in their industry. They've achieved incredible growth going from 0 to 800 employees in little over 3 years - an incredibly talented team - like us. This makes the late nights, early mornings, and travelling worthwhile. By combining forces, we'll unlock incredible synergies and insights, accelerating both our companies even faster. I will shortly share the official announcement – it will put circle8 on a track that 4 years ago wouldn’t have seemed possible. #partnership #circle8 #staffing #consulting #data #technology

Guus Franke 👊
“Growth and comfort do not coexist” – this statement has impacted my perspective this month. At Axiom Partners, we are steadfast in our pursuit of growth. Our ambition is not just incremental improvement but exponential, double-digit growth year on year. This trajectory necessitates stepping out of our comfort zones and embracing the discomfort that accompanies bold decisions. Making tough calls is an integral part of our journey. Deliberating where to invest, how to deploy capital, and where to direct our focus is critical—it’s the essence of our business strategy. Equally important is recognizing where not to invest. Each decision carries weight, and we approach these crossroads with meticulous care. This past month has been telling. We’ve observed cross-industry recalibration, with companies aligning closer to their core principles. Reports suggest Apple has shelved its electric vehicle ambitions, which involves walking away from substantial investments. Google’s AI has encountered challenges, and the broader market is awakening to the realisation that being first isn’t synonymous with being the best. The adage that Meta's Facebook wasn’t the pioneer social network, Netflix the original streaming service, or Amazon the first online retailer resonates more than ever. These must have been tough decisions to walk away from the investments, but it’s a necessity to put the company’s health first. The allure of the first-mover advantage is undeniable. When it pays off, the rewards are colossal. Yet, it’s a high-stakes gamble. Reflecting on the trajectories of Facebook, Netflix, and Amazon, it’s evident that there’s merit in patience. Patience isn’t exciting; you’re waiting, conserving capital, not employing new teams, not investing in shiny new tech. Yet, during these periods of patience, refining, training, and evaluating are the investments that should take place. These giants watched competitors like Myspace, Bebo, and Blockbuster pave the way, shouldering the initial costs and challenges of innovation. For me, the strategy of refining existing market solutions holds more appeal. Observing, learning, and launching an improved offering—much like Facebook did—aligns with my philosophy. Innovation isn’t just about speed but timing, insight, and forging a better path. A path already ploughed is easier to walk down than to plough yourself. #growth #capital #leadership #solutions #firstmover
