GCP promotes Shaw to partner

UK firm Growth Capital Partners (GCP) has promoted Richard Shaw to partner.
Shaw joined GCP in April 2012 and was an investment director before being promoted to partner. Prior to this, he held M&A, banking and restructuring advisory roles at Clearwater Corporate Finance and Grant Thornton, where he qualified as a chartered accountant.
He leads GCP's investment activity in the TMT sector, and is more widely involved in new deals and portfolio management across the firm. Deals he has led include business communications service Arrow, and FLYdocs, a provider of aviation records management software.
GCP held a final close for its fourth fund on £205m, surpassing its £200m target, in July last year.
