JTech Advisory

What JTech Advisory does

JTech Advisory (legal name: SIA "JTech Advisory") is a privately-held boutique investment banking advisory firm headquartered in Riga, Latvia, at Vilandes street 1-7. The firm specializes exclusively in cross-border M&A advisory for technology companies, advising European tech company owners on the disposal of assets to and growth capital raises from international strategic and financial investors. Its service offering spans four interconnected lines: (i) M&A advisory for full or partial sale transactions with international strategics or private equity funds, including growth equity and management buyouts, (ii) capital raise advisory from venture capital, growth equity, debt, or mezzanine funds, (iii) buy-side advisory for international strategic and financial investors pursuing acquisitions in the Baltics and CEE, and (iv) strategic planning plus market and industry research. The firm focuses on three technology verticals — B2B Software (including AI/ML and automation), Fintech and Payments (crypto payments, embedded finance, Banking-as-a-Service), and Business Services Technology (cloud, IoT, iGaming, aggregation platforms) — and serves a deal-flow corridor spanning the Baltics, CEE, the UK, and parts of Western and CIS Europe.

The firm operates with a small multidisciplinary team of four confirmed members — Managing Partner Kirill Jurzditsky, Partner Arman Hanamirjan, Analyst Tymur Lukavenkau, and Legal specialist Elena Kuznetsova — and is actively hiring for Associate/Associate Director and Analyst positions, signaling a deliberate scaling of execution capacity. Senior partners bring more than 20 years of investment banking advisory experience and a cumulative track record of 60+ transactions, evidenced by disclosed mandates including the sale of Driving Theory Test app to RAC (backed by Silver Lake, GIC, and CVC Capital Partners), the sale of Top Connect to JT IoT (a Perwyn portfolio company), the sale of GetaPro to Baltic Classifieds Group PLC (LON:BCG), and the acquisition of Alna Business Group by Digital Mind. The firm is privately held, founder/management-owned, with no external institutional backing, parent company, or public listing identified.

JTech Advisory's business model is professional services revenue, structured as success fees on closed transactions plus retainer fees for ongoing engagements, with pricing negotiated transaction-by-transaction and not publicly disclosed. The go-to-market motion is network-based and referral-led, relying on the partner team's relationships with international strategics, private equity funds, and tech company owners across Europe rather than paid marketing. The firm does not develop proprietary technology and has no API, SDK, or software product surface; AI/ML appears solely as a sub-vertical of its software sector coverage rather than as an internal capability. The sole office is the Riga headquarters, serving as the base for the multinational team that executes cross-border mandates across the Baltics, CEE, and broader Europe.

Core offering

JTech Advisory is a Riga-based boutique investment bank that advises European technology companies on cross-border M&A transactions, including sell-side and buy-side advisory, capital raising, and strategic planning/market research. The firm is sector-specialized in B2B Software, Fintech/Payments, and Business Services, and serves both company owners seeking exits or growth financing and international strategic and financial investors seeking European technology targets.

Product overview

JTech Advisory is an investment banking advisory firm, not a software product company. It operates as a single unified advisory service rather than a platform-plus-modules architecture. The firm offers four interconnected service offerings: M&A Advisory Services (covering sell-side full sale, growth equity, and management buyouts), Capital Raise Advisory (from VC, growth equity, and debt/mezzanine funds), Buy-Side Advisory (for strategic investments and platform acquisitions), and Strategic Planning and Market Research. These services collectively address the full transaction lifecycle for technology company owners seeking to dispose of assets to or raise growth capital from international strategic and financial investors. The firm focuses on three technology verticals: B2B Software, Fintech and Payments, and Business Services.

Direct peers

• GP Bullhound: Global technology advisory and investment firm focused on M&A, growth equity and lending for digital, software, and tech-enabled businesses. Same core value proposition of senior-led, tech-sector-specialist M&A advisory as JTech, with broader geographic reach.
• Silverpeak: Independent boutique advisory firm focused on technology and tech-enabled businesses, advising on M&A and growth financings. Closely analogous to JTech in firm size, sector specialisation, and mid-market cross-border positioning.
• Clipperton: Paris-based independent boutique investment bank focused exclusively on technology and digital companies, advising on M&A and growth financing across Europe. Highly comparable business model: senior-led, sector-specialist, cross-border mid-market tech M&A.
