Inflexion, a leading European mid-market private equity firm, is pleased to announce that Enterprise Fund VI has received the “Overall Fund Raising of the Year: Growth” award at the Private Equity Wire European Awards 2026.
Inflexion Enterprise Fund VI ("the Fund") closed at its hard cap of £975 million. Raised in less than five months, the Fund follows its successful £400 million predecessor fund.
Focused on the lower mid-market, the Fund follows the same successful strategy employed by Inflexion for over 25 years, backing high growth, entrepreneurial businesses with ambitious management teams and working in partnership with them to accelerate growth. At the time of the Fund close, the Enterprise Funds had delivered a realised track record of 4.4x gross multiple and 42% gross IRR. This strategy has delivered highly successful exits including Automotive Transformation Group, DR&P, European Lifecare Group, Goat, Lintbells, and Virgin Experience Days.
Enterprise Fund VI typically invests in businesses valued up to £150 million, taking both majority and minority stakes across Inflexion’s core sectors of Business Services, Technology, Healthcare, Industrials, Consumer and Financial Services. All companies backed by the Fund will have full access to Inflexion’s value acceleration resources covering M&A, international expansion, digital enhancement (including data and artificial intelligence), commercial effectiveness, sustainability and talent management.
Enterprise Fund VI was raised almost exclusively from Inflexion’s existing investor base of blue-chip institutions from across the US, Europe, Asia and the Middle East, with investors on average more than doubling their commitment versus the previous vintage.
The Enterprise Fund is a core part of Inflexion’s mid-market solution which, together with the Buyout Fund and Partnership Capital Fund, allows the firm to provide a range of bespoke funding solutions addressing the full spectrum of the European mid-market.
We are delighted to receive this award. The rapid fundraise and strong commitment from our long-standing investors underscores the strength of our lower-mid market strategy and our proven ability to back ambitious companies to accelerate their growth.
We are proud to win the Overall Fund Raising of the Year: Growth award, which reflects the trust our investors place in us. Our heritage is in lower mid-market investing, where we have built a leading track record over the last 25 years. We understand how to partner with ambitious entrepreneurs to accelerate growth, and we remain committed to bringing the full breadth of Inflexion’s resources to help them succeed.
