August Equity promotes Lonsdale to Partner

London-based GP August Equity has promoted investment director David Lonsdale to partner.
Lonsdale initially joined the firm in 2008 from British Sky Broadcasting and was promoted to investment director in April 2010.
In January 2014 he led an investment in Westpoint, a veterinary group for the livestock industry. Lonsdale was also involved in the August Equity-backed Independent Vetcare bolt-on of Berry House Group in December 2011.
The GP announced in January that its latest vehicle, August Equity Partners III, had exceeded its £180m target, closing on its £200m hard-cap.
