Gisele Magalhães launched Noble‑Oak Capital in 2021, transforming what began as a hedge fund into a boutique M&A practice focused on middle‑market deals.
Today she pairs institutional‑grade analysis with an entrepreneurial mindset to help clients navigate complexity and unlock value.
With 7+ years of financial‑planning and M&A experience spanning high‑growth start‑ups to global enterprises, Gisele has guided fundraising rounds, joint ventures, and cross‑border acquisitions across multiple industries. Post‑close, she leads integration—restructuring teams, processes, and technology stacks to deliver sustainable results.
Process‑Driven: Her approach is anchored by a disciplined six‑step deal framework that keeps each engagement transparent, efficient, and value‑focused—from initial consultation through eventual exit.
Investment Philosophy
“Numbers reveal the what; people reveal the why. Sustainable returns emerge when you respect both.”
People‑first diligence. Beyond financial models, Gisele spends time on the shop floor in one‑on‑one founder sessions to understand the human engine of a business.
Operator’s mindset. Every letter of intent is backed by a 100‑day integration blueprint and a three‑year value‑creation roadmap, ensuring strategy survives first contact with reality.
Long‑term alignment. She favours deal structures that keep founders meaningfully invested post‑close, aligning incentives through earn‑outs, rollover equity, or performance‑based exits.
