What Jet Investment does

Jet Investment is a Czech private investment company founded in 1997 and headquartered in Brno that manages €700M+ in assets under management across three business lines: Jet Private Equity (majority-stake acquisitions of established industrial companies across Central Europe), Jet Real Estate (industrial property development and management, including a €50M Jet Industrial Park under construction in Gdańsk, Poland), and Jet Venture Capital (early-stage industrial tech investments of €500K–€2M+ per company through the Jet Venture 1 fund). The firm has supported more than forty companies over three decades and explicitly invests its own capital alongside investor capital to align interests.

The business model relies on subscription-style fund management fees across the three vehicles, supplemented by rental income and capital appreciation in real estate, and exit-driven returns from buyout and venture positions. Jet serves two primary segments: industrial companies in Central Europe seeking growth capital, operational modernization, and international expansion support; and institutional and individual investors seeking exposure to CEE industrial opportunities with the benefit of professional management and co-invested sponsor capital. Distribution is relationship-driven — direct network of investors, company owners, and industrial managers — supplemented by a corporate website and earned media in regional and PE industry publications.

The firm has an active recent transaction record, including the 2022 buyout of eds.group (a €300M-revenue Central Eastern European printing platform), the 2023 acquisition of Czech building profiles maker Likov, the 2024 exit of Tedom to Yanmar Group, the 2025–2026 venture investments in IAG, Boost.space, and Digicust, and the March 2026 sale of energy business Rockfin to Germany's Capmont group. April 2026 saw the groundbreaking of the Gdańsk industrial park and the formation of a strategic partnership with ZKL Group and Toboga. Operations span the Czech Republic, Poland, Austria, Germany, and the broader CEE region, with portfolio companies beginning to target the United States.
