Where Capital Meets Vision

Founded in 2017 by Markku Palipea, Arion has evolved from a personal investment vehicle into a trusted partner for institutional capital, founders, and public stakeholders across Europe, Southern Africa, and Southeast Asia.

We connect institutional capital with high-impact projects in energy, real estate, and emerging technology.

Executive Consulting

We guide C‑suite leaders through high-stakes innovation and transformation.

Deal Structuring

We structure high-value, cross-border deals between European capital and Southeast Asian/African projects in energy and real estate.

Investments

We deploy our own capital and that of select partners into strategic ventures and luxury-class opportunities.

On a Personal Note.


Arion reflects the way I believe business should be done—intentionally, selectively, and with long-term conviction.

Today, it’s a trusted partner to institutions, founders, and public stakeholders who seek sharp thinking and long-term value creation.

I invite you to connect if you believe in building something enduring.

Markku Palipea, CEO and Founder
