Livingbridge invests in Disguise MBO

Financial details of the transaction remain undisclosed, though the GP drew capital from Livingbridge Enterprise 2 LP to support the transaction. The vehicle makes growth and buyout deals, writing equity cheques of up to £10m for companies valued at up to £100m.

Following the deal, the company will invest in product development, with a particular focus on the launch of camera-calibration technology and video-formatting hardware. It will also pursue further international expansion, having recently opened an office in Shanghai and with a Los Angeles office scheduled to open in May.
