Inflexion, a leading European mid-market private equity firm, is pleased to announce that it has won the Private Equity House of the Year: Upper Mid-Cap (EV on entry €100-500m) award at the annual Real Deals British Private Equity Awards.
During the judging period, Inflexion announced 13 investments with a combined Inflexion equity value of £1.8bn and supported 58 acquisitions for its portfolio across 12 countries with a combined value of £770m. The judging period was also a successful time for realisations, with seven exits generating c. £1bn in proceeds, and an average gross return of 3.3x. The portfolio saw 16% EBITDA growth and 10% headcount growth, and four companies achieved B Corp with a fifth company achieving B Corp post the judging period.
Inflexion’s European expansion continued, with the successful opening of an office in Frankfurt. This follows the opening of Inflexion’s Nordic and Benelux office in the last few years. Since the judging period, Inflexion has also announced the opening of an office in New York, focusing primarily on supporting Inflexion portfolio companies and accelerating their North American market entry through ambitious acquisitions. All regional offices work closely with Inflexion’s sector teams and global network.
In March 2024, Inflexion closed Inflexion Partnership Capital Fund III at its hard cap of £1.75bn, following its successful £1 billion predecessor fund, making it the largest dedicated minority fund in Europe. This was followed by the Enterprise Fund VI fundraise which closed at its hard cap of £975 million after less than five months, and followed its £400 million predecessor fund.
We are honoured to be named Private Equity House of the Year once again. This recognition is a testament to the energy, ambition, and relentless focus of the entire Inflexion team. It also reflects the trust our investors and portfolio companies place in us. Over the past year, we have delivered strong results, led successful fundraises, realised meaningful exits, and supported exceptional growth across our portfolio. We are proud of what we have achieved together—and even more excited about what’s ahead.
