Inflexion, a leading European mid-market private equity firm, is pleased to announce a minority investment in Marktlink Capital, a leading Benelux investment platform providing private investors with access to private markets. The investment is being made by Partnership Capital III, Inflexion's dedicated minority fund. Marktlink Group will remain a shareholder alongside Inflexion and the Marktlink Capital management team.

Headquartered in Amsterdam, Marktlink Capital offers entrepreneurs and families access to leading private equity, venture capital and private credit funds across Europe and North America. By pooling capital through fund-of-funds and feeder vehicles, Marktlink Capital enables individual investors to participate in institutional-quality portfolios, with entry levels ranging from €100,000 in private credit to €250,000–€500,000 in private equity and venture capital. Since its founding in 2020, Marktlink Capital has raised over €3bn in committed capital, almost entirely from Dutch entrepreneurs and high-net-worth families, and today employs around seventy specialists. Having launched in Belgium in 2025, Marktlink Capital has ambitious plans for further expansion across Europe.

The European private wealth market for alternatives is growing rapidly, driven by demand from entrepreneurs and families for the kind of diversified, institutional-quality access to private markets historically reserved for large institutional investors. Marktlink Capital aims to become Europe's leading private markets platform, scaling both organically and through M&A. Inflexion will support Marktlink Capital's next phase of growth, drawing on its international network and sector expertise to accelerate the company’s European expansion and widen the opportunities available to its investor community.

Marktlink Capital has been built by entrepreneurs, for entrepreneurs. This has fostered a strong level of credibility and authenticity with its client base that is hard to replicate. The opportunity across Europe is significant, and we look forward to supporting Hylke and the team as they continue to develop the platform and expand into new markets.
Andrea Bertolini Partner and Head of Financial Services, Inflexion
Marktlink Capital is exactly the kind of business our Partnership Capital strategy is built for – a founder-led platform with real momentum, where management want to retain control while bringing in a strategic partner to accelerate growth.
David Whileman Head of Partnership Capital, Inflexion
We want to become the leading platform in Europe for private markets, and to achieve that we need to accelerate our growth. Inflexion is the ideal partner for this next stage of our growth. Their experience of scaling entrepreneurial businesses internationally, combined with their network across Europe and beyond, will help us accelerate innovation and support more entrepreneurs through our platform.
