Tikehau Capital backs Medtrade
Tikehau Capital has invested £23m (circa €26m) in Medtrade Products, a UK-based technology-led medical devices company.
Through this £23m investment, Tikehau will provide strategic and operational support to accelerate the company's development and continue its global expansion.

Medtrade will be the fifth investment from the fund. Earlier this month it was announced that the GP backed France-based Addev Materials.
