Next Wave Partners Information

Next Wave Partners is a fast-paced independent private equity firm based in London. We invest in established businesses with strong market positions, anticipating disruptions that will drive outperformance. We are proud of our long record of growing businesses: the total value of our portfolio companies has grown from £300m to over £1bn in value. We invest equity in carefully selected mid-market companies across tech-enabled environment, industrial, and business services. Our diverse portfolio is united by sectors which demand high-level operational expertise, supported by our active capital approach providing strategic advice, sector knowledge and resources to exceptional management teams. We are differentiated by our people-first investment strategy, developed over decades of international value creation, which transforms companies into global market leaders. As a result, we have supported the expansion of predominantly British businesses into Europe, The Middle East, Asia, and the Americas. Our investments are driven by a deeply-held conviction that top-line revenue growth, scaling operations, and margin enhancement drive superior returns to financial engineering. At Next Wave Partners, we build up businesses, not break them down.
