$ALBKY Major Alpha Bank Group Companies: Investment Banking "Alpha Ventures" Alpha Ventures was established in 1990, and was

the very first Private Equity/Venture Capital company in Greece.

Alpha Ventures:

invests in new or dynamically growing enterprises not listed on the Stock Exchange, usually by participating in

their share capital,
provides active assistance to the enterprises in which it invests,
has a long-term participation horizon (over 3-5 years).


Alpha Ventures spearheads the Group’s investment activities in Private Equity/Venture Capital and to this date has carried

out investments in enterprises active in various sectors in Greece and abroad.

Alpha Ventures is also able to attract investors from Greece or abroad or organise financing through bilateral or syndicated

loans.

The Company is actively monitoring the enterprises of its portfolio, providing them with assistance on financial, legal and

strategy matters both during the initial financing stage as well as later on.

In addition, it also offers support in areas that are crucial for sound and sustained enterprise growth, such as:
access to capital markets through the introduction in the Stock Exchange,financial planning,
business alliances, commercial associations, mergers and acquisitions,
attraction of new staff,
entry into new markets.

In addition to the above, the participation of Alpha Ventures in the share capital of a rapidly growing company contributes

the authority of a reliable institutional investor and provides access to the products and services of the Alpha Bank Group.

The Company is staffed by specialised executives possessing significant knowledge and experience and the drive to seek

business partners for financing and supporting their growth. The skills of its human resources, its attention to detail and

the sense of responsibility towards the customer, combined with its size and investment capabilities, make Alpha Ventures

one of the leading Private Equity/Venture Capital companies in Greece.

Our priority is on Greek companies and on companies active in the wider region of Southeastern Europe which are

characterised by predictable cash flows and clear growth prospects, and on investments with a predetermined period for

liquidation, either via internal cash flow or via their sale to a strategic investor or listing on a regulated capital

market. In this context, five new investments worth Euro 14 million are planned, while we also plan to liquidate three of

our participations. http://www.alpha.gr/page/default.aspAid=669&la=2
