We founded Kent Hospitals Group in 2004 with a group of businessmen, with the aim of bringing a modern healthcare institution to beautiful İzmir, which is one of the largest business, cultural and economic centers of Turkey.
Kent Hospital, established on land of 30,000 square meters with a total closed area of 22,000 square meters on six floors, was constructed according to the Building Guidelines of American Hospitals; with diagnosis and treatment facilities that are equipped with the latest medical technologies.
My partners and I, who played an important role in the establishment and development of Kent, decided that it would be a right decision to develop a strategic or financial partnership, in order to secure the present situation and future growth of this prestigious institution.
3 Seas Capital Partners introduced us to various suitable local and foreign candidates for more than a year. Throughout this period, 3 Seas Capital Partners provided us with information on valuation of local and global companies, as well as the details of financial and economic conditions of similar mergers and acquisitions in our sector; and prepared multiple reports on the candidates, valuation and partnership conditions for Kent Hospital.
We held many meetings with the senior and experienced teams of the company and each time we were provided partner-level attention.
Following a negotiation phase competently managed by 3 Seas Capital Partners, we chose to cooperate with Mid Europa Partners from a long list of local and foreign candidates. Mid Europa Partners is a Private Equity Company from UK with a total fund size of 3.2 billion Euros, and we believe it will greatly contribute to Kent as well as our industry.
On behalf of my partners and myself, I can confidently claim that we were highly content with the advisory of 3 Seas Capital Partners for Kent Hospitals Group.
I believe that their sector experience and accurate candidate selection, as well as their top level approach in defending our benefits and their quick response in answering all our questions, have been the most important factor in having such a seamless process.
