Description
InfraVia Capital Partners is a prominent European private equity firm based in Paris, France, distinguished by its dual investment focus on infrastructure and technology. While widely recognized for its substantial infrastructure investments, the firm has established a dedicated Growth Equity Tech fund to capitalize on opportunities within the rapidly expanding B2B technology sector. This specialized fund targets scale-up companies that have progressed beyond the early stages, specifically those at Series B and subsequent funding rounds, indicating a proven business model and significant market traction.
The Growth Equity Tech fund's investment strategy centers on providing substantial capital to B2B technology companies demonstrating robust growth and clear potential for market leadership. InfraVia typically seeks to make initial investments ranging from €30 million to €100 million, with the flexibility to deploy additional capital in follow-on rounds as portfolio companies scale. This significant check size positions InfraVia as a key partner for mature scale-ups seeking substantial growth capital. The firm successfully closed its Growth Equity Tech fund in 2022, raising €250 million dedicated to these strategic investments.
InfraVia Capital Partners leverages its extensive experience in private equity to support its tech portfolio companies, offering not just capital but also strategic guidance and operational expertise. The firm's long-standing presence in the European market, coupled with its deep understanding of complex investment landscapes, provides a unique advantage.
