Idinvest Partners

Europe, Ile-de-France, France, Paris

Description

Idinvest Partners, established in 1997, was a prominent pan-European private equity manager with a strong focus on the low and middle market segments. In 2018, it was fully acquired by Eurazeo, a leading global investment company, becoming a cornerstone of Eurazeo's private debt and venture capital activities. While no longer an independent entity, Idinvest's legacy and expertise continue to drive Eurazeo's strategies in these areas, particularly within the Eurazeo Venture and Eurazeo Growth divisions.

Historically, Idinvest Partners cultivated a diversified investment approach, encompassing venture capital, growth equity, private debt, and fund of funds. Its venture arm, now integrated into Eurazeo Venture, has been a significant player in the European tech ecosystem, targeting innovative companies across sectors such as digital, B2B software, and healthcare. The firm's pan-European footprint allowed it to identify and support high-potential businesses from early-stage development through significant growth phases.

For its venture and early-growth equity investments, Idinvest Partners, and subsequently Eurazeo Venture, typically deployed initial cheques ranging from €1 million to €20 million. This range supported companies from seed and Series A rounds up to more substantial growth capital infusions. Notable companies that have benefited from their investment include European success stories like Criteo, the global ad-tech giant, music streaming service Deezer, leading online healthcare platform Doctolib, and blockchain security firm Ledger. The firm's strategic capital and operational support have been instrumental in scaling these businesses across Europe and globally.
