Grégoire Houëdry

I am currently an Associate Director at Clearwater having joined in 2018 as an Analyst. I have been involved in transactions across the healthcare and business services sectors, most notably advising on the sales of France Thermes and Crèches de France. Clearwater creates a challenging and demanding environment which allows me to push myself every day alongside experienced professionals. Working in M&A is particularly exciting work with the opportunity to help clients in strategic decisions and to participate in their economic growth. I graduated from Université Paris-Dauphine with a major in Corporate Finance and Financial Engineering.

I co-manage Clearwater's activity in the Mediterranean region, alongside Emmanuel Xerri. Following a career in large cap companies in London working for CIBC Capital Markets, I quickly moved into the small and mid-cap segment working for Degroof Petercam, CIC Conseil and then Clairfield International to advise families and shareholders on their strategic considerations. Our goal is to accompany our clients over the long term, by reconciling our technical expertise of the large cap market with tailor-made solutions which meet the specificities and challenges of SMEs. I have advised on more than 30 transactions, including the sale of Markal, a major player in organic food, to FrenchFood Capital, the sale of Laboratoire BioCasamance, a medical analysis laboratory, to Eurofins, the sale of Bio&Co, an organic distribution network, to InVivo, the acquisition of Maxicoffee, a coffee roaster and e-commerce business, by the Daltys group, BPI France and the Qatar sovereign wealth fund’s (QIA) investment in Alstef Group, an Industry 4.0 logistics solutions company, and the refinancing of laser cutting business GL Groupe and PSD, a pharmaceutical group. I am convinced that Clearwater's three-dimensional approach of sector expertise, regional proximity and international footprint is a differentiator for our clients.
