Interviewer: Dr. Raphael Nagel, as the Founding Partner at Tactical Management, a hybrid venture builder and strategic management company based in Hong Kong, you have a unique perspective on investing in underperforming companies, distressed real estate, non-performing loans, and innovative technologies like robotics and AI-based MaaS (Marketing as a Service) software. How do you manage such diverse industries and stages of investment?
Dr. Raphael Nagel: Thank you for having me. At Tactical Management, we excel in navigating complexity and diversity. Our success is driven by a strategic approach that combines deep industry expertise, rigorous due diligence, and an unwavering commitment to innovation. Each sector presents unique opportunities and challenges, and our hybrid venture builder model allows us to leverage synergies across these diverse fields. Every company we invest in is owned by an independent holding company, all under the umbrella of our industry platforms, enabling tailored strategies and optimized management.
Interviewer: Let’s start with underperforming companies. What draws Tactical Management to invest in these businesses?
Dr. Raphael Nagel: Underperforming companies hold untapped potential. We identify businesses with strong fundamentals but facing operational or strategic challenges. By injecting capital, restructuring operations, and providing strategic guidance, we can unlock significant value. Our team’s extensive experience across various industries enables us to tailor our approach to each company’s specific needs, driving turnaround and growth. Each company operates independently, ensuring focused and specialized attention under our strategic industry platforms.
Interviewer: Distressed real estate is another complex area. What is Tactical Management’s strategy here?
Dr. Raphael Nagel: Distressed real estate offers substantial opportunities for those with the right expertise and vision. We focus on acquiring undervalued properties, implementing strategic improvements, and repositioning them in the market. Our comprehensive approach includes legal and financial restructuring, innovative property management, and marketing strategies. This maximizes returns while revitalizing communities. Each real estate venture is managed under its own holding company, providing targeted and efficient oversight.
Interviewer: Non-performing loans (NPLs) are often seen as risky. How does Tactical Management approach NPL investments?
Dr. Raphael Nagel: NPLs can indeed be risky, but they also offer substantial rewards for those who can navigate their complexities. Our strategy involves thorough due diligence to assess the true value and recovery potential of these loans. We work closely with borrowers to restructure the debt, finding mutually beneficial solutions that improve their financial health while ensuring returns for our investors. This hands-on, collaborative approach mitigates risks and enhances outcomes. Each NPL investment is managed by an independent holding company, ensuring dedicated focus and strategic execution.

Dr. Raphael Nagel: Innovation is at the heart of Tactical Management. We are constantly exploring cutting-edge technologies that have the potential to disrupt industries and create new market paradigms. In robotics, we invest in technologies that enhance automation and precision, while in AI-based MaaS, we focus on solutions that revolutionize marketing efficiency and effectiveness. Our team’s deep technical knowledge and our extensive network of industry experts ensure we are at the forefront of these advancements. Each tech investment is managed by its own holding company, fostering focused innovation and strategic growth.
Interviewer: Managing such a diverse portfolio must be challenging. How do you ensure success across these varied investments?
Dr. Raphael Nagel: The key to managing a diverse portfolio lies in our hybrid venture builder model and the structure of independent holding companies under industry platforms. This allows us to integrate expertise across different sectors, fostering innovation and cross-pollination of ideas. We maintain a flexible, adaptive approach, continuously learning and evolving with the market. Our robust risk management framework, coupled with a hands-on, collaborative investment strategy, ensures we can navigate complexities and capitalize on opportunities across all stages and industries.
Interviewer: Can you share an example of a successful investment in one of these areas?
Dr. Raphael Nagel: Absolutely. One of our standout successes is our investment in a robotics company specializing in automated surgical systems. We provided not only capital but also strategic guidance and operational support, helping the company achieve FDA approval and significant market penetration. This investment not only delivered impressive financial returns but also demonstrated our ability to drive innovation and create meaningful impact in the healthcare sector. This company, like all our ventures, operates under its own holding company, ensuring dedicated and effective management.

Dr. Raphael Nagel: Diversification requires a blend of deep industry knowledge, strategic vision, and operational agility. My advice is to build a team with diverse expertise, conduct rigorous due diligence, and maintain a flexible, adaptive approach. Focus on identifying synergies between different investments and be prepared to take a hands-on role in guiding them to success. At Tactical Management, our hybrid venture builder model and the structure of independent holding companies under industry platforms are particularly effective in managing diverse portfolios, allowing for integration and innovation across sectors.
