Invision reaches €285m hard-cap

The successful close comes after the DACH-focused firm purchased German fire protection business Kraft & Bauer Brandschitzsysteme in May. The deal marked the final investment from Invision IV, which closed in excess of CHF 300m in November 2008.

Probitas Partners acted as placement agent. SJ Berwin acted as legal adviser.

Investments
Invision V will retain the same investment strategy as its predecessors: investing in companies with an enterprise value of between €30-100m, throughout Germany, Austria and Switzerland.

The GP plans to invest in growth companies across various sectors. However, the team has a preference for businesses operating within the information technology and telecommunications, medical technology, financial services and media & entertainment sectors.

Investors
Commitments came from institutional investors based in the UK, Europe and the US.
