Unquote speaks to Bregal Milestone’s Cyrus Shey and HPE Growth’s Manfred Krikke about the European growth equity landscape, how this has changed over time, and what it means to be a growth equity investor.

In this episode, Shey and Krikke join Harriet Matthews to dive into each firm’s strategy, the operational skillset needed to work with and develop a growth equity company and its founders, and the future of the industry.
