Inflexion was founded over 25 years ago with a spirit of restless ambition  to help mid-market businesses flourish. That remains unchanged today.

One of Europe’s largest and most experienced teams, we combine deep expertise with a global network. Forging close partnerships, we help entrepreneurial management teams accelerate their growth and reach their potential.

Backing the  mid-market

Investing across the European mid-market

Having built Inflexion from scratch, we have great empathy with the businesses we back. Everyone here has an entrepreneurial eagerness to unpick things and explore new angles, to assess how we can improve what we do.

Managing Partner, Inflexion

We founded Inflexion in 1999, with a borrowed office, two desks, one computer and no capital. But with hard work and persistence we have grown this business to what it is today, building a likeminded team and delivering some of the best performing funds in Europe along the way.

Managing Partner, Inflexion

We work with some of the most dynamic founders and entrepreneurs in the mid-market. They share their vision, and we listen, adapt and look to establish true partnerships. Rather than a one size fits all, we create bespoke solutions for the entrepreneurs we back.
