Sustainable Growth and Succession Planning
EWD Environment Water Development GmbH is an investment holding within the single family office of the Drs. Hengstberger family. Based in Böblingen, the family office has been operating since 1997. In addition to private wealth management, it focuses specifically on investments in medium-sized companies, with a key emphasis on the sustainable implementation of succession planning.
A central pillar of the family's activities is the building of a corporate platform centered around water technology. For more than 70 years, the professional and investment activities of the family have been closely linked to the water sector. This commitment is highlighted by anchor investments such as Düker GmbH, a renowned manufacturer of cast iron components for water supply and wastewater disposal.
EWD pursues a partnership approach, fostering respectful and trusting relationships for long-term development. The investment activities focus on medium-sized companies with clearly defined market positions and future-oriented business models across the entire value chain, from manufacturing to engineering services.
