What team members say about us
Viktor Meier
From Analyst to Partner
“Whenever the moment came that I was thinking about a new path, I was offered an interesting alternative here to take on more responsibility and grow.”
Anette Cooper
From Strategic Consultant to Vice President
“I have been on the team for over a decade. I support medium-sized businesses in company acquisitions or even sales – in the DACH region and cross-border – in moments that change companies and entrepreneurs alike. Seeing how I can accompany founders to their destination is a great feeling.”
Ozan Uluca

“The change was easy for me: convincing interviews and an M&A consultancy with an international network that has been successful for decades. True team spirit characterizes our collaboration.”
What interns say about us
“Dynamic and incredibly varied – I think these words best describe my time spent with the Leipzig team.
After a very well-structured onboarding day, I was accepted directly into the Financial Consulting team, where I was given responsibility for my tasks after just a few days. I was able to take on tasks within the various phases of the entire M&A process within the scope of different projects – starting with the preparation of pitch decks and indicative company valuations based on trading and transaction multiples, to the preparation of financial plans as well as various company and market analyses, and finally to the consolidation of all this data in the information memorandum.
My diverse tasks don’t even let me notice how time flies. The teamwork is also outstanding. Overall, I can develop my skills enormously during the internship, gain numerous new experiences and make valuable contacts from which I also learn a lot personally. I am incredibly grateful for the time I get to spend in this dynamic company!”

“During my four-month internship at the Leipzig office, I found my time at Pava extremely enriching and instructive. From the very beginning, I was accepted into a team that is characterized by exceptional team spirit. The atmosphere at Pava Partners is characterized by mutual support and cooperation. The excellent onboarding process helped me to settle in well right from the start and get involved in the exciting projects straight away.
The variety of tasks I was given during my internship was impressive. From conducting company valuations to creating various marketing documents, as well as financial planning and analysis, each challenge helped to deepen my skills and understanding of the financial world and apply the skills I learned in my Master’s program at HHL in practice.
The steep learning curve I experienced during my time at Pava Partners deserves special mention. Every day brought new insights and allowed me to continuously develop myself.
Overall, my internship at Pava was an incredibly rewarding experience that not only expanded my professional knowledge, but also furthered my personal and professional development. I am grateful for the opportunity to have been part of this great team.”
Piet Bischoff
December 2023 – March 2024
“During my three-month internship, I will support the Leipzig team in the Financial Consulting department.
The welcome and onboarding went remarkably smoothly. The daily project routine is varied and exciting. In FC, the scope of duties covers topics ranging from the development of pitches to the preparation and analysis of financial data to the execution of company valuations using DCF, multiples and, depending on the deal type, other methods. Especially in terms of modeling, evaluation discussions and also implementation creativity, you therefore learn a lot. For questions, everyone always has an open ear and is available with advice and support. The office culture is very pleasant, with an eye for the big picture, a good sense of community through team events and also strong integration of interns. The trust placed in me spurs me on from the start to tackle new challenges unerringly and also to take on larger tasks with a sense of responsibility.
Because of the steep learning curve and strong culture, I highly recommend interning at Pava.”
David Riegger
September 2023 – November 2023
“Dynamic, rewarding, varied – that’s what my internship was like. It has been a great pleasure to be part of a dynamic and international team of professional investment bankers working on exciting, entrepreneurial projects in emerging industries. I appreciate the opportunity I had to improve my technical skills and build on the academic knowledge I gained in school. The opportunity to receive constant feedback and suggestions for improvement from experienced bankers is invaluable.
I have lived in many cities – from Shanghai to Berlin, from Cologne to Paris – but the city of Leipzig is a pearl that I will miss very much.”
Yihe Zhao

“Many thanks for the support last year within the framework of the Deutschlandstipendium. This made it possible for me to organize my studies more carefree and to concentrate on essential things.”
