We make sell-side M&A leaner
A platform built by M&A advisors for M&A advisors — not by investment bankers casting their commission logic into software.
André Beherzig — Founder Mergixa
Over 25 years advising the Swiss mid-market has taken me through a dozen sell-side mandates — usually as IT architect setting up data rooms, sometimes as the seller's technical co-pilot. Mergixa is the platform we wished we had built fifteen years earlier.
On the sell-side, the most expensive hours are the ones a good advisor spends maintaining Excel lists instead of talking to the client.

LinkedIn profileWhy now?
Three market shifts in 2024–2026 make sell-side tooling for Swiss mid-cap boutiques more relevant than ever.
Swiss SME succession wave
Estimates point to roughly 80,000 Swiss companies that need to be handed over in the next decade — many of them mid-cap family businesses without professionalised sell-side tooling.
revDSG entry into force (2023)
The revised Swiss Data Protection Act has tightened data-room standards — cross-border DD requires clearly documented data flows, disqualifying improvised SharePoint setups.
GenAI maturity 2024–2026
Generative AI enables Q&A preparation and risk-indicator extraction in 24 hours instead of 3 weeks — but only with controlled data-room architecture without cross-tenant data leakage.
Three clear differentiators
What sets Mergixa apart from Datasite, Drooms or Intralinks — domain arguments, no comparative advertising.
Sell-side first
Workflows from the seller's perspective rather than the buyer's data room: vendor-DD prep, Q&A routing between seller advisors and bidders, term-sheet comparison via the Jack Nasher framework.
Mid-cap scale
Multi-mandate tooling for Swiss boutique advisors (3–30 active mandates) — affordable, without the enterprise pricing of a CHF 3 bn deal tool.
Anti-vendor-lock-in
Data-room contents, Q&A history and audit trail downloadable any day as ZIP — contractual element, not a marketing promise.
Advisory board — three perspectives that keep us honest
Mergixa's methodology is reviewed quarterly by a three-member advisory board of Swiss domain experts. Recruiting in progress (4–8 weeks cycle time).
M&A veteran
Swiss mid-cap PE veteran or ETH/HSG CCF lecturer — reviews sell-side methodology and market relevance.
Recruiting in progressFiduciary association rep
TREUHAND|SUISSE or EXPERTsuisse — bridge to fiduciary audience and cross-sell value with Konkurse Abwenden.
Recruiting in progressCorporate lawyer
Swiss lawyer with experience in mid-cap sell-side mandates and revDSG compliance — reviews ToS, privacy and contractual elements.
Recruiting in progressAdvisory-board roadmap
We deliberately start with an 'in setup' statement rather than pseudo-board cards. Once slots are filled, photo, name, qualification and LinkedIn link will appear per person.
- • Advisory profiles identified via Swiss fiduciary association network (4 weeks)
- • Engagement agreement: quarterly review + advisory briefing in newsletter every 3 months
- • Photo + name + qualification + LinkedIn published on About page
- • Advisory briefings published quarterly in the Mergixa newsletter — with topical clarity (no PR fluff)
