Clifford Chance advises Invision on closing of INVISION VI FUND at the hardcap of €375 million
INVISION VI has successfully concluded its fundraising at its hardcap of €375 million. Significant support from existing investors, combined with overwhelming interest of new investors led to oversubscription.
The Fund received strong backing from a diverse group of local and global investors, including financial institutions, asset managers, foundations and high net worth individuals.
INVISION VI Fund will continue the firm’s successful strategy of partnering with great entrepreneurs investing in companies with enterprise values of between €30 million and €100 million, across Germany, Austria and Switzerland (the “DACH” region). INVISION is dedicated to growing these businesses through acquisitions and integration, active development in corporate matters, increasing products and customers, digitalisation enhancements and internationalisation.
INVISION was founded in 1997 and is a leading private equity investment company based in Switzerland and Germany, focusing on SMEs in Europe, particularly in German-speaking countries.
The international Clifford Chance team advising INVISION comprised partner Sonya Pauls (lead) and associates Michael Gilmour, Kevin Merchant and Shanelle Müller (all Corporate/Private Equity, Munich), partner Jan Grabbe and senior associate Andrius Bielinis (both Tax, Frankfurt), partner Paul Van den Abeele (Funds, Luxembourg), partner Anthony Stewart (Tax, London) as well as partner Gregor Evenkamp, counsel Alexandra Margarete Uhl and associate Werner Radziwill (all Regulatory, Frankfurt), partner Avrohom Gelber and associate Rebecca Pereira (all Tax, New York), counsel Paul Koppel (ERISA, New York), and further lawyers from international Clifford Chance offices.
